Description
When you’re rebuilding that John Deere engine and the machine shop calls to tell you the crank journals need to be turned, you’re going to need these undersize bearings. If your connecting rod journals are worn or scored, they can be machined to a precise undersize and fitted with these .010 undersize bearings to restore proper clearances and oil pressure. It’s a common part of any professional engine rebuild on these reliable 4045T and 6068T powerplants.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-manufactured connecting rod bearings sized exactly .010 thousandths undersize
- Quality bearing material designed to handle the loads and heat of diesel engine operation
- Proper clearance specifications to restore factory oil pressure and bearing life
- Direct replacement for worn journals that have been machined to undersize specifications
Built for Diesel Engine Rebuilds
These bearings are engineered for the 4045T and 6068T diesel engines found in John Deere 6000 and 7000 series tractors. Whether you’re rebuilding the engine in a 6400 that’s been running the planter for years or freshening up a 7600 that’s seen thousands of acres of tillage work, proper bearing clearances are critical for long engine life and reliable oil pressure.
Made to Last
These bearings are properly heat-treated and manufactured to handle the demanding conditions of agricultural use. The bearing material is designed to work with modern diesel oils and provide years of reliable service when properly installed with correct clearances.
Good to Know
This is a job for an experienced engine builder – connecting rod bearing replacement requires precise measurement of journal size and bearing clearance. Make sure your machinist uses the correct undersize measurement when turning the journals. Always replace bearings in complete sets and check all clearances with a micrometer and plastigage before final assembly.
