What Precautions Should Be Taken When Fitting Rod Bearings on Dodge Charger?

Install the connecting rods all on the same side until done and make a note of which bearing caps come off since they do not fit on the other side. Mark the rods by measuring, not with a punch and handle the broken rod and cap as gently as you can to protect the engine. Assemble the bearing shells so that the tangs fit into the grooves you've made in the rods and caps and make sure that the upper bearing half's hole is lined up with the oil spot in the rod, then fit the cap with the tangs on the rod's same side. Allow both the limits of taper and out-of-roundness on any crankshaft journal to be no more than 0.015 mm (0.0006 in.) and 0.010 mm (0.0004 in.), respectively. Bearings can be undersized by 0.001 in. and 0.005 in., but you must install them as pairs and never combine new and old bearing halves or file any of the rods or bearing caps. Use plastigage when checking Main Bearing Clearance and Connecting Rod Bearing Clearance. Check the diameter of the threaded sections on the connecting rod bearing cap bolts before reusing them; if here is any damage, put in new bolts. The connecting rod bolts are kept in the rod cap using a loose fit, so if they must be taken out, apply gentle hammer and punch blows to avoid messing up the broken area. Hold a scale against each thread; if any break contact, exchange the bolt. Apply engine oil to the threads before joining the engine to the transmission and afterwards tighten the bolts loosely and add torque to the nuts alternately. To test connecting rod side clearance, place a dial indicator on a stationary spot on the motor, situate the probe pointing perpendicular to the cap on the rod that's being measured, move the connecting rod backward until zero is shown on the dial, then move it to its front limit and measure the reading against the engine specifications.
