Frequently asked questions

What is the RTC478320 main bearing kit for?
It's a crankshaft main bearing set machined 0.020 inch undersize, for 2.5 litre diesel engines including 200Tdi and 300Tdi. Fits Defender (from engine number 12J43825C), Discovery 1, and Range Rover Classic with these diesel engines.
Does this kit cover the full crankshaft?
Yes, one RTC478320 kit is a complete main bearing set for one engine, covering every main bearing journal. Only one kit is needed per rebuild.
Why does fitment start from a specific engine number?
Land Rover changed the crankshaft or bearing specification at engine number 12J43825C, so earlier Defender engines need a different bearing set. Check your engine number plate before ordering.
Why do main bearings need to be undersize?
Undersize bearings are typically fitted when the crankshaft journals have been reground to remove wear or scoring, common practice on a rebuild. Standard-size bearings won't give correct clearance on a reground crank.
