NOTE:

Do Not lubricate the new connecting rod bolts. They are already coated with a anti scuff treatment.

  1. Assemble connecting rod bearings (7) and bearing caps (5) to their respective connecting rod ensuring that the serrations on the cap and reference marks are aligned.
  2. Tighten connecting cap bolts to 50 N.m (37 ft. lbs.) plus an additional 70 degrees turn.
  3. Check and record internal diameter of crank end of connecting rod (2).
  4. Connecting rods are supplied in sets of four, so if one connecting rod is out of spec then all four need to be replaced.
