FAQ

Q1: How can I confirm this 214950 bearing is the correct one for my engine?
A: First, verify your engine model is a Cummins NT855. Then, check the number stamped on the back of your old bearing shell. If it matches 214950, this is the correct part. Also, measure your crankshaft journal diameter to confirm you need a standard size bearing, as undersized bearings are available for reground crankshafts.

Q2: Is this a full set of shells for one connecting rod?
A: The weight of 6 kg suggests this is a set of bearings for a complete engine overhaul, covering all connecting rods for a 6-cylinder NT855 engine. Please verify the quantity upon receipt to ensure you have enough shells for your entire engine block.

Q3: What is the proper installation procedure for these bearings?
A: Clean the connecting rod and cap bore thoroughly. Apply a thin layer of clean engine oil to the bearing shell back and the crankshaft journal. Install the shells, ensuring the locating tab fits into the groove. Torque the connecting rod bolts to the manufacturer’s specification (typically 190-200 ft-lbs for the NT855) using a torque wrench. Always check bearing clearance with Plastigage after installation to ensure it is within spec.
