Features
- Oversize specification +.060 inch (1.52 mm)
- For overhaul of reground crankshafts
- Complete set of main crankshaft bearings
- Ensures correct bearing clearance after regrinding
- Essential for durable engine rebuild
★ High-quality bearing shells for professional engine overhauls. Precisely manufactured to original specifications for optimal bearing clearance and long service life.
⚠ Important
- Check crankshaft journal diameter with micrometer before ordering
- Wrong bearing size causes irreparable engine damage
- Measuring bearing clearance with plastigauge is mandatory
- Torque bearing caps to specification (torque wrench)
- Do not mix with other bearing sizes
Application
This bearing set is specifically intended for engines where the crankshaft has been reground to -060 undersize dimension (crankshaft journal diameter 2.274 inch / 57.76 mm). This occurs in engine overhauls where the main bearing journals of the crankshaft show wear and must be reground.
Installation notes
CRITICAL: Installation requires precision tools and technical expertise. Always check crankshaft journal diameter with a micrometer before ordering bearings. Bearing clearance must be measured with plastigauge (recommended clearance 0.001-0.002 inch). Bearing caps must be correctly positioned and torqued to specification. If in doubt: leave installation to an experienced engine mechanic.
Compatibility
Only suitable for crankshafts ground exactly -060 undersize. DO NOT use on standard or other oversize dimensions. Wrong bearing size leads to irreparable engine damage through excessive or insufficient bearing clearance. Always check actual crankshaft journal diameter before installation.
Historical context
Oversize crankshaft bearings were standard available in the military parts system for field overhauls of engines. Bearing sizes.010 to.060 undersize were common to enable engine blocks to be overhauled multiple times during their long service period.
