Why do you need a rod bearing on a piston?
Why do you need a rod bearing on a piston?
rod bearings exist to facilitate bearing installation and are not specifically intended to prevent bearing “spin.” The bearing crush that is generated when the cap is properly tightened prevents bearing movement.
Where can I find the latest torque specs?
Find the most up-to-date torque spec listings in electronic format. FelPro-Only.com is your convenient source for advanced sealing information. It’s the place to learn and share “tricks of the trade,” find proper diagnosis and installation instructions, and enjoy easy access to parts reference.
What should the torque be on a torque table?
Torque specifications are shown either as an exact figure, or a specific range. Follow any special instructions or multi-step directions carefully to assure correct final torque. There may be different specifications for different size bolts, bolts in different positions, tightening bolts in several stages, or a cold engine vs. a warm engine.
Where are the SBC and BBC bearings located?
For example, SBC and BBC bearings tangs are positioned toward the outside (toward the pan rails). Other designs may specify that the tangs are located to the inside. This isn’t an issue of the bearings themselves but merely serve to provide a reference for rod orientation.
Where can I find the torque specification guide?
Ensure that you have the correct torque for the application by referring to SKF 457377 torque specification guide or contact the vehicle manufactures dealer. It is important that you properly torque the spindle nut to ensure optimum bearing life. Under torque of an axle nut will allow excessive movement causing uneven loading and excessive wear.
