Description
When your Ford tractor starts knocking under load or burning oil, worn connecting rod bushes are often part of the problem. These big end bearings are the hardest working parts in your engine—they handle thousands of RPM while supporting the tremendous forces of diesel combustion. This set of three precision bearings gets your engine running smooth and quiet again.
What You’re Getting
- Set of three connecting rod bearings for one cylinder—order multiple sets for complete engine rebuild
- Precision 36mm bore with proper 10 thou clearance for optimal oil film and performance
- High-quality bearing material designed for the constant stress of reciprocating engine loads
- Direct replacement for early type Ford engines with no modifications needed
Built for Real Farm Work
These Ford 3-cylinder tractors are everywhere – the 2000, 3000, and 4000 series, plus the newer 2600, 3600, 4600, 4100, and x610 models. They’re the do-everything tractors on small to medium farms, perfect for loader work, mowing, raking, and light tillage. Whether you’re running hay equipment, pulling a bush hog, or doing loader work around the farmyard, these engines see everything from gentle idling to full-throttle work.
Made to Last
This connecting rod bush is manufactured to handle the constant reciprocating motion and loads that occur in diesel engine operation. The bearing surface is designed to work with proper lubrication to provide smooth piston pin movement while resisting wear from the high pressures and temperature cycling that come with diesel combustion. Quality bearings like these maintain proper clearances and reduce vibration for long engine life.
Installation Notes
This is an engine-out job that requires complete disassembly, proper measuring tools, and torque specifications. Connecting rod bushes should always be replaced during engine rebuilds, even if they appear serviceable – proper clearances are critical for engine longevity and performance. While you’re in there, it’s smart to replace all the bearings, rings, and gaskets for a complete refresh.
