Description

When you’re hearing that telltale knock from under the hood, it’s usually your rod bearings telling you they’ve seen better days. This standard rod bearing kit is what you need to get your Ford New Holland tractor’s engine back to running smooth and quiet. There’s nothing worse than having your workhorse sidelined during planting or harvest season, and worn bearings can quickly turn into a complete engine failure if you don’t address them.

Standard size rod bearings engineered to factory specifications for reliable performance
TISCO brand quality that meets or exceeds OEM standards for long-term durability
Complete bearing set eliminates the guesswork of ordering individual pieces
Precision-ground surfaces provide optimal oil clearance for proper lubrication
Heat-treated construction withstands the constant stress of connecting rod operation

Built for Real Farm Work

Ford New Holland tractors have powered American farms for generations, from compact utility models handling chores around the farm to larger row-crop machines pulling heavy implements through tough soil conditions. Whether you’re running a vintage Ford 3000 or a newer New Holland series tractor, these engines take a beating season after season. This bearing kit is designed for the demanding conditions farm tractors face, from long hours at full throttle to the constant load changes of field work.

Made to Last

These standard rod bearings are manufactured to handle the heat, pressure, and vibration that tractor engines dish out daily. The bearing material provides the right balance of strength and conformability to handle minor imperfections while maintaining proper oil film thickness. Quality materials resist fatigue and wear even under heavy loads, giving you the reliability you need when there’s work to be done.

Installation Notes

Rod bearing replacement requires engine disassembly, so it’s typically done during a complete overhaul or when you’ve got the engine torn down anyway. Check your rod journals for wear or scoring before installing new bearings, and always use proper torque specifications when reassembling. A quick tip: check your oil pump and change the oil filter at the same time to ensure clean oil reaches those new bearings from day one.
