Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if my main bearings are failing?

Common signs of failing main bearings include a deep, rumbling or knocking sound from the engine that increases with RPM, low oil pressure, or the presence of metallic particles in the engine oil upon inspection.

Is this a standard size (STD) bearing kit?

Yes, this is a standard size (STD) kit. It is not oversized or undersized. It is designed to fit crankshafts that have not been machined.

Can I install just one new bearing, or should I replace all of them?

It is strongly recommended to replace all main bearings at the same time. This ensures even wear, consistent oil clearances, and proper engine balance, preventing premature failure of both new and old components.

Will this kit fit models outside the listed year ranges?

We can only guarantee fitment for the specific engine models and years listed in the compatibility table. Using this part in other models is not recommended, as even slight differences can lead to engine damage.

OEM vs. Aftermarket?

This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.

Shipping speed & cost?

We ship worldwide quickly—typical transit 5–15 days. Standard shipping is free; expedited options appear at checkout where available.

Warranty & returns?

Covered by a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use. If issues arise, contact support with your order details. Returns are accepted within our standard window (unused & in original condition). See our policy page or reach out for instructions.
