What is the Role of Rod Bearing in Measuring Crankshaft Bearing Clearances with Plastigage on 2007 Dodge Caravan?

Plastigage should be used to determine crankshaft bearing clearances. Cleanse the bearing shell of all oil film and apply Plastigage to the bearing shell and make the cap bolts tight. Once the cap is removed, measure the flattened Plastigage width against the given scale to get the clearance. Measure and place bearings, where required.
