Connecting Rod Bearing Set for Massey Ferguson 3400, 5400 & 6400 Series Tractors

Description

When you’re pushing your Massey Ferguson through a heavy day of plowing or pulling implements, the connecting rod bearings in your engine are working overtime. These small but critical components connect the pistons to the crankshaft and handle enormous forces with every engine revolution. If you’ve noticed oil pressure dropping, metal particles in your oil, or unusual engine noise, worn connecting rod bearings could be the culprit – and catching it early can save you from a complete engine rebuild.

What You’re Getting

• Complete bearing set for all cylinders of Perkins 1104C-44T engines
• Precision-manufactured bearings that handle the high pressures and heat cycles of diesel operation
• High-quality bearing material designed for thousands of hours of reliable service
• Proper clearances engineered to maintain oil film thickness and engine performance
• Quality construction that meets or exceeds original equipment specifications

Built for Real Farm Work

This bearing set fits the Perkins 1104C-44T engines found in your Massey Ferguson 3400, 5400, and 6400 series tractors. Whether you’re running a mid-size 5435 through hay fields or pushing a bigger 6470 through tough tillage work, these engines are built for the long haul. The 1104C is a proven four-cylinder powerplant that delivers reliable performance for everything from loader work to heavy field operations.

Made to Last

Connecting rod bearings are engineered to handle the constant hammering and high temperatures that come with diesel operation. These bearings feature proper metallurgy and surface treatments that resist wear and maintain the critical oil clearances your engine needs. Quality bearings like these are designed to go the distance between major overhauls when properly maintained.

Installation Notes

This is definitely a job for an experienced mechanic or engine shop, as it requires removing the oil pan and connecting rods. Always check connecting rod and crankshaft condition before installing new bearings. Proper torque specifications and bearing clearances are critical for long life. While you’re in there, it’s a good time to inspect the oil pump and replace the oil filter.
