Description
When you’re hearing that telltale knocking sound from your engine, especially on startup or under load, worn connecting rod bearings are likely the culprit. This .020 oversize bearing gives you a second chance to rebuild that engine instead of hunting for a replacement – saving you time and money when there’s work to be done.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-manufactured to .020 oversize specs for crankshafts that have been turned
- High-quality bearing material that handles the heat and pressure of gas engine operation
- Direct replacement that restores proper oil clearances and eliminates that dangerous knocking
- Built to original equipment specifications for reliable, long-lasting performance
Built for Real Farm Work
This bearing fits John Deere’s 135 cubic inch 3-cylinder gas engines (you’ll need 3 bearings) and the larger 180 and 202 cubic inch 4-cylinder gas engines (you’ll need 4 bearings). These engines powered a lot of utility tractors and smaller farm equipment that still earn their keep around many operations today.
Made to Last
Rod bearings work in one of the toughest spots in any engine – sandwiched between the connecting rod and crankshaft where tremendous forces and heat are generated. This bearing uses materials specifically formulated for gas engine applications, providing the right balance of strength and conformability to keep your engine running strong.
Good to Know
Installing rod bearings means splitting the engine, so this is typically a job for someone with engine rebuilding experience. Always check your crankshaft journals with a micrometer to confirm they’ve been turned to .020 undersize before ordering. It’s also smart to replace all the rod bearings at once rather than doing just one or two.
