  6. Install the new caged bearing into the connecting rod, confirming it is correctly seated.
  7. Reassemble the connecting rod onto the crankshaft, using a torque wrench to tighten fasteners to the manufacturer's precise specifications.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if this bearing fits my engine?

This bearing is designed for Johnson/Evinrude 9.9 HP and 15 HP 2-stroke outboards manufactured between 1974 and 1999. Always cross-reference your engine's original part number with 395401 to ensure compatibility.

What are the signs of a failing connecting rod bearing?

Common symptoms include a distinct knocking or rattling sound from the engine (rod knock), low oil pressure, and the presence of metal shavings in the engine oil upon inspection.

Is this bearing pre-lubricated?

No. It is critical to apply a high-quality engine assembly lubricant to the bearing and all related surfaces during installation to prevent premature wear and ensure proper function.

What is the difference between this and the OEM part?

This aftermarket bearing is manufactured to match the fit and function of the OEM part (395401). It is engineered from comparable materials to deliver reliable performance at a better value.

What is the recommended replacement interval?

Connecting rod bearings do not have a fixed replacement schedule. They are typically replaced during a complete engine rebuild or when specific signs of wear or failure are diagnosed by a qualified technician.

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.
