FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this bushing fits my Caterpillar C6.4 engine?
A: Please verify your engine’s serial number and the original part number (8-98023-526-0). This bushing is a standard fit for the C6.4 engine used in 320D and 323D excavators. If you have a modified or rebuilt engine, we recommend measuring the connecting rod small-end bore to confirm the outside diameter.

Q: What is the recommended installation procedure?
A: Installation requires a hydraulic press and a properly sized mandrel to avoid distortion. The bushing should be pressed into the connecting rod until it is flush. After installation, the inside diameter must be honed to the final size (typically 0.020-0.030mm clearance) to match the piston pin. Always lubricate the bushing with engine oil during assembly.

Q: How often should the con rod bush be replaced during engine overhaul?
A: It is standard practice to replace the con rod bush during every major engine overhaul, typically every 6,000-8,000 hours of operation, or whenever the connecting rod is removed. Signs of wear include increased noise (knocking) and reduced oil pressure in the affected cylinder. We recommend replacing all six bushes as a set to ensure balanced performance.
