ACL Rod Bearing High Performance 0.50mm Oversized Set 52mm Journal Bearing WRX 2002-2014 / STI 2004-2021 Subaru Turbo Models | 4B8296H-.50

When you're replacing rods and pistons, it's smart to replace the rod bearings too. Good support from 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 built tough. Their strong and durable design helps prevent fatigue and failure, and also reduces stress on the drivetrain. Know what you're buying: 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 have to measure it before buying. Make sure you get the right bearings because engine internal components can't be exchanged or returned. Fitment: Subaru EJ20/EJ22/EJ25.

Using these ACL rod bearings is simple. When you're working on replacing the rods and pistons in your Subaru turbo model, just swap out the old rod bearings with these new ones. But here are some important things to note. First, always measure the journal size of your engine before buying. It's not determined by the car's VIN or the year it was made. Make sure you get the right size, either 48mm or 52mm, as engine parts can't be returned. For maintenance, keep an eye on your engine's performance. If you notice any strange noises or vibrations, it could be a sign that the bearings need to be checked. Also, follow the regular oil change schedule as clean oil helps keep the bearings in good shape and reduces wear and tear over time.
