ACL Rod Bearing High Performance 0.25mm Oversized Set 52mm Journal Bearing WRX 2002-2014 / STI 2004-2021 Subaru Turbo Models | 4B8296H-.25

When you're replacing rods and pistons in your Subaru engine, it's smart to swap out the rod bearings too. Good support from the main bearings is super important. It stops oscillations and wear that can harm the crankshaft and other parts if the engine gets out of balance. ACL's high - quality rod bearings are designed to be tough and strong. They prevent fatigue and failure, and also reduce stress on the drivetrain. Remember, Subaru rod bearings come in either 48mm or 52mm journal sizes. The journal size isn't based on the VIN or the year of the car. You need to measure it before buying. Make sure you get the right bearings because engine internal components can't be exchanged or returned. These bearings fit Subaru EJ20, EJ22, and EJ25 engines.

Using these ACL rod bearings is simple. First, when you're working on replacing rods and pistons in your Subaru engine, take out the old rod bearings and put these new ones in. But before you buy, measure the journal size carefully to ensure you get the right fit (either 48mm or 52mm). Once installed, your engine will get better support, reducing the chance of wear and tear on the crankshaft and other parts. As for maintenance, keep an eye on your engine's performance. If you notice any strange noises or changes, it might be a sign to check the bearings. Also, follow your car's regular maintenance schedule to keep the engine in good shape. And remember, since these are engine internal components, they can't be exchanged or returned, so double - check your measurements before purchasing.
