Product Details

Product Overview

This high-quality Connecting Rod Bearing (part number 8-97045800-2) is specifically designed for the Isuzu 4HG1T diesel engine. Manufactured to OEM size specifications, this bearing is a critical component for maintaining proper clearances and oil film thickness between the connecting rod and the crankshaft, ensuring smooth engine operation and longevity.

Commonly used in a variety of heavy-duty applications including construction equipment, industrial machinery, agricultural tractors, generator sets, marine engines, and material handling equipment, this bearing is a direct replacement for worn or damaged components. It is a standard (STD) size bearing, making it suitable for engines with original or unmodified crankshaft journals.

Key Features & Benefits

• Precision Engineering: Manufactured to match the exact OEM dimensions (8-97045800-2) for a perfect fit on the 4HG1T crankshaft journal, eliminating guesswork during installation.
• High Durability: Constructed from high-grade, multi-layer steel-backed material designed to withstand the high loads and pressures of turbocharged diesel combustion.
• Superior Wear Resistance: Features a specialized overlay that provides excellent anti-friction properties and resistance to scuffing, extending the service life of both the bearing and the crankshaft.
• Optimal Oil Clearance: Designed to maintain the precise oil clearance required for proper lubrication and heat dissipation, reducing the risk of engine seizure.
• Reliable Performance: Each bearing undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure consistent wall thickness and surface finish, guaranteeing reliable engine performance.
• Direct Replacement: This is a standard (STD) size bearing, intended for direct replacement in engines with original, unworn crankshaft journals.

FAQ

Q: How do I know if this is the correct bearing for my engine?
A: This bearing is specifically designed for the Isuzu 4HG1T engine. The part number is 8-97045800-2. You should check your old bearing for this number. This is a Standard (STD) size bearing, which is only suitable if your crankshaft journal has not been reground. If your crankshaft has been machined down, you will need an undersize bearing (e.g., 0.25mm, 0.50mm).

Q: What is the correct installation procedure for connecting rod bearings?
A: Installation should be performed by a qualified diesel mechanic. Key steps include: 1) Thoroughly clean the bearing saddle and the back of the bearing shell. 2) Apply a thin layer of clean engine oil to the bearing surface. 3) Ensure the bearing locking tab fits securely into the groove in the rod and cap. 4) Torque the connecting rod bolts to the manufacturer’s specifications using a calibrated torque wrench. 5) Always rotate the crankshaft by hand after tightening to check for binding.

Q: What are the signs that my connecting rod bearings need replacement?
A: Common symptoms include a low-frequency knocking or rumbling noise from the bottom of the engine, especially when accelerating or under load. Low oil pressure, metallic debris in the oil filter, and a rough-running engine are also strong indicators. If you suspect bearing failure, stop the engine immediately to prevent catastrophic damage to the crankshaft and connecting rod.
