Frequently asked questions

What is the RTC173030 conrod bearing set for?
The RTC173030 is a connecting rod bearing set machined 0.030 inch, fitted to the 2.25 litre 4-cylinder petrol and diesel engines used in the Series II/III and Defender (1983-2006).
Can conrod bearings be reused once fitted?
No. Conrod bearing shells are a wear item designed to be replaced as a full engine rebuild component, not reused once they've run in against the crankshaft journal.
Why would an engine need 0.030 inch oversize conrod bearings?
The 0.030 inch size is used when the crankshaft has been reground to remove wear or damage on the journals. Standard-size bearings won't give correct clearance on a reground crank, so the matching oversize set is required.
Which engines take the RTC173030 bearing set?
It fits the 2.25 litre 4-cylinder petrol and diesel engines fitted to the Series II/III and Defender up to 2006. Confirm your engine capacity and crankshaft grind size before ordering.
