How to Properly Install Rod Bearings and Ensure Correct Clearance on Jeep Patriot?

Three sizes of rod bearings are available and you can tell them apart by looking at the nose of the crankshaft. To measure the connecting rod bearing clearance, place Plastigage onto the bearing and consult the engine handbook for the proper specification. Never reuse the rod bolts; before installing fresh units, apply oil to the threads and underside of the head with clean engine oil. Add every bolt finger tight, then go ahead to tighten each one alternately to assemble the cap properly. Stretch every connecting rod bolt to 20 Nm (15 ft. lbs.) and then tighten it another 90°. Afterward, check the side clearance of the connecting rod down the middle by using a feeler gauge and review the engine manual for the correct clearance values.
