What Precautions Should Be Taken When Fitting Rod Bearings on Chrysler 300?

Put all the connecting rods on one side together, making sure you mark the bearing caps so they are placed correctly on reassembly. Do not punch rods to mark them to prevent damage and be careful not to harm the surfaces of the fractured rod and cap joint, since it can result in engine harm. Put the bearing shells on the rods, placing the tangs inside the machine grooves and line up the hole in the upper bearing shell with the squirt hole in the rod. Keep the limits for taper on crankshaft journals to 0.015 mm (0.0006 in.) and maintain the limits for out-of-round to 0.010 mm (0.0004 in.). Lubricated bearings can be obtained in sizes that are 0.025 mm (0.001 in.) and 0.250 mm (0.010 in.) less than nominal and should always be installed in matching pairs so that both are new and the rods or caps have not been filed. To check main bearing and connecting rod bearing clearance, you should use plastigage. Before putting into service, check the connecting rod bearing cap bolts; if the threads are damaged by stretching, use replacement bolts instead. The connecting rod bolts are held in the rod cap by light pressure and to remove them safely, tap them out without damaging the split surface below. Run a scale along all threads to spot stretching; if some threads don't touch the scale, change the bolt. Insert some engine oil on all the threads before using the bolts and tighten each nut by hand, going left to right, before tightening them according to instructions. To determine connecting rod side clearance, fix a dial indicator on a point that does not move, place the probe across the connecting rod cap, zero the dial, then move the rod forward to its longest travel and read the dial indicator. Go through this process on all connecting rods using the crankshaft to move them out of your way.
