Description
When your diesel engine starts knocking under load or you’re seeing metal shavings in the oil, worn connecting rod bearings are usually the problem. These bearings sit right at the heart of your engine, keeping those connecting rods moving smoothly and protecting your crankshaft from damage. This 1.0mm oversize bearing kit is designed for engines that have had their crankshaft journals machined during a rebuild.
What You’re Getting
- Complete bearing set for one engine rebuild with precision-ground oversize dimensions
- Built with bearing materials that resist fatigue and maintain proper oil clearances even under the temperature swings and contamination that agricultural engines face
- Precision manufacturing ensures they’ll seat properly and provide consistent performance
- Direct replacement for worn standard bearings when crankshaft has been turned 1.0mm undersize
Built for Real Farm Work
This kit is engineered specifically for the 6-590, 6T-590, and 6TA-590 CDC-B series 6-cylinder diesel engines found in agricultural and industrial equipment. These are robust powerplants that handle everything from loader work to heavy tillage, and they need bearings that can keep up with the demands of farm life.
Made to Last
Connecting rod bearings take some of the hardest punishment in your engine, especially during heavy pulling or PTO work. These oversized bearings restore proper clearances when your crankshaft has been machined, giving you the tight tolerances you need for reliable operation and long engine life.
Installation Notes
Installing connecting rod bearings requires complete engine disassembly and is definitely a job for someone with engine rebuilding experience. It’s the perfect time to check your crankshaft for wear, inspect the connecting rods, and replace other engine internals like main bearings and rings. Always check bearing clearances with plastigauge before final assembly to ensure everything’s within spec.
