ACL Rod Bearing High Performance 0.025mm Oversized Set 52mm Journal Bearing WRX 2002-2014 / STI 2004-2021 Subaru Turbo Models | 4B8296H-.025

When you're working on your rods and pistons, it's smart to replace the rod bearings too. Proper support from main bearings is essential to stop oscillations and wear that could damage the crankshaft and other parts if the engine gets out of balance. ACL's top - quality rod bearings are designed to be durable and strong, preventing fatigue and failure while reducing drivetrain stress. Know exactly what you're buying: Subaru rod bearings are specific to either a 48mm or 52mm journal size. The journal size isn't related to the VIN or the year, so you must measure it before buying. Make sure you get the right bearings as engine internals aren't eligible for exchange or return. Fitment: Subaru EJ20/EJ22/EJ25

Using these ACL rod bearings is straightforward. When you're replacing the rods and pistons in your Subaru turbo engine (WRX 2002 - 2014 or STI 2004 - 2021), take out the old rod bearings and put these new ones in. But before you buy, always measure the journal size. It's either 48mm or 52mm, and this measurement isn't based on the VIN or the year of your car. Remember, once you've installed engine internals like these bearings, you can't exchange or return them, so double - check you have the right ones. For maintenance, keep an eye on your engine's performance. If you notice any strange noises or vibrations, it could be a sign that the bearings need to be checked. Regular oil changes also help keep the bearings in good condition as clean oil reduces friction and wear.
