Rod bearings play a vital role in the engine by providing a smooth surface for the connecting rods to rotate around the crankshaft, reducing friction and wear. These bearings help maintain proper engine function by supporting the rods and allowing them to move freely within the engine block. Without rod bearings, the engine components would grind against each other, leading to severe damage. They are located between the connecting rods and the crankshaft journals.
The rod bearing set (.25MM) with the code USEP-5093450K is designed for vehicles equipped with the 2.4L engine, including Chrysler and Dodge models such as Caravan, Town & Country, Neon, Stratus, PT Cruiser, Sebring, and Cirrus. This set includes four bearings, enough for four connecting rods, and is made of unpainted metal that uses existing hardware for installation. It fits both the upper and lower positions in the engine and is undersized by .25MM to accommodate engine rebuilds requiring this specification.

Our bearings come with a 2-year warranty, ensuring reliability and peace of mind for our customers.
