Frequently asked questions

What does the RTC299330 con rod bearing set do?
The RTC299330 connecting rod bearing set is the big-end shell bearings that sit between the crankshaft journals and the con rod big ends on the 2.5L 4-cylinder engine. They give a lubricated running surface and maintain the oil clearance that carries the rotational load of the engine bottom end.
What does 0.030 inch oversize mean on the RTC299330?
The 0.030 inch oversize RTC299330 set suits a crankshaft reground 0.030 inch from standard big-end journal size. Match the set to your crankshaft's regrind, as the wrong grade gives incorrect oil clearance. If the crank is at standard size, you need the standard set instead.
Which engines does the RTC299330 fit?
The RTC299330 fits the 2.5L 4-cylinder engines in the Land Rover Defender, Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic, covering the 2.5 petrol, 2.5 diesel, 200 Tdi and 300 Tdi. Confirm your engine type and crankshaft journal size before ordering.
