Frequently asked questions

What is the RTC171820 main bearing set used for?
The RTC171820 is a crankshaft main bearing set for the Rover 3.5L V8 petrol engine, ground 0.020in undersize. It fits Defender, Discovery 1, Range Rover Classic and Series III Stage One V8 applications when the crank has been reground.
What does 0.020in undersize mean?
0.020in undersize means these main bearings suit a crankshaft reground 0.020in smaller than standard on the main journals. Order this size only if your V8 crank has been machined 0.020in undersize, otherwise the bearing clearance will be wrong.
Which engines does this main bearing set fit?
This 0.020in main bearing set fits the 3.5L V8 twin carb petrol in Defender (1987-2006), Discovery 1 (1989-1998), Range Rover Classic and the Series III Stage One V8. It's one set per engine covering all main bearing positions.
Why replace the main bearings?
Main bearings are typically replaced during a V8 engine rebuild or when the crankshaft is reground. Worn main bearings can cause low oil pressure and a deep knocking noise. Matching the bearing size to the reground crank journal is essential for correct clearance.
