Frequently asked questions

What is the Connecting Rod Bearing (Blue)?
The Connecting Rod Bearing (Blue) is a big-end bearing shell for the connecting rod of the 4.4 V8 AJ petrol engine, supporting the rod on the crankshaft journal. Blue is the selective-fit size grade that sets the correct running clearance to the crankpin.
Which models use this Blue big-end bearing?
This Genuine Land Rover connecting rod bearing fits the 4.4 V8 AJ petrol (220kW) and 4.2 V8 Supercharged engines in the Discovery 3, Range Rover L322 and Range Rover Sport L320 (2002-2009). It serves the petrol V8 bottom end.
How do I know the Blue grade is correct for my engine?
Blue is one of several colour size grades for the AJV8 big-end bearing. The correct grade comes from the size markings on the crankshaft and connecting rod, so check the original shell colour and the engine's grade marks to match the right clearance rather than guessing.
How many shells does each connecting rod use?
Each connecting rod on the 4.4 V8 AJ typically takes two bearing shells, one in the rod and one in the cap. Count the rods you're rebuilding and confirm the grade per journal, as grades can differ between journals on the same crankshaft.
