rod bearing replacement

[@dv-mitchellmcever8158]

Remove the spark plug first. This alleviates the compression in the cylinder.

[@Makal.0w0]

This is super smart, it made it so much easier to move the pistons

[@PrisonCitySam]

Will it hurt if I take them out after removing the oil pan at the bottom

[@dv-mitchellmcever8158]

@ no. Compression is above the piston. The crankcase builds its own pressure, which is relieved by the crank case PCV

[@contraband1543]

This video cracked me up

[@thenman23]

3:12 died laughing

[@YoureReadingMyCommentNow.]

Informative for sure. Though, I say this nicely, it does matter which way the cap goes. Torque matters and bearing clearance matters. If the clearance is off, oil pressure will take a shit. Most engines have notches or lettering on them there to line up the cap that has the matching letter/notch. Other than that, as long as the vehicle runs, send it. lol

[@michaelbarrett8803]

Some assembly lube might be nice

[@philipcutcliffe9742]

putting them in bone dry may as well rub them on the driveway first 😂😂

[@mikecrawford5331]

🤔 looks dubious I’m wishing you the best outcome.

[@musicforsleepandrelaxation3504]

Best damn dyi video ever made

[@thomastrimm4662]

My engine is knocking looked up bearing replacement and this came up. I was stressing out Until I saw this! Made me laugh multiple times man .....thanks

[@SamShudders]

Wish I’d have watched this video first. My car would probably be on the road instead of sitting next to my barn for a year while I gather the confidence.

[@SteveInterdonato]

Way over simplified. You need to use 800-1000 wet and dry sand paper to smooth the crank Journals after removing bad bearings. There shold be NO grittyness moving the new bearing on the crank journal but super smooth. Then you need to use a Plastic guage to measure ths space is proper between the bearing and the crank journal. Since this video did nt show the truck running after the job, I assume his job did NOT work.

[@chromeagnome]

When your truck has 360k on it and You've rebuilt it once already it's past time to care lol, as long as it runs

[@vamoneygroup]

​@@chromeagnomeexactly, he's talking factory specs but the truck won't run like new. Your just tryna buy a few more years.

[@ervinsrings4168]

Spray the f out of it..😅

Is that all? 😂

[@jackhandy1039]

Thanks for the video brother. I'm about to do this on our engine.

[@SamShudders]

He’s missing a few steps.. watch the convoluted mechanics videos on these.. you can probably meet them somewhere in between.

[@AlexanderAsprer]

is that a knocking sound noise, thats why you replaced a rod bearing?

[@gatttagofast]

You're so funny, thank you for the laugh definitely goanna be me when I do mines

[@bdmr_isf]

ford torque specs😭😭😭 this shit cracked me up also you should have properly oiled the new bearings with fresh oil before you put them in

[@urbanturbine]

iz gonna be fiiine. you are so uptight.

[@LoganBoyle-fn3if]

What do you mean by grittinesses? Honest question

[@420Brew]

Are you turning them bolts to the right? Unless your camera is refracting

[@gj4578]

Maybe he's looking at a mirror.

[@kennethtalbott2233]

the video is the wrong way around so it looks like he's undoing the bolts when he's actually tightening them.

[@pepenacho17]

Funniest vid since "give me more cowbell"😂😂😂

[@michaelparker2319]

“Then go to Ford torque specs which is… right about there”. Lol.

So its left hand threads?

[@jdm_redneck_408rider4]

Hell yeah bro my f****** 2005 SXT just fun to rod bearing and I got to get my girl to work by 3:00 p.m. I'm about to handle it. It's 707 in the morning. Thanks!

[@kiejuanmills6566]

Lol did u make it on time for her to get to work

[@Sk3wd33]

No response must mean no and it ain't his girl no more. She for da streets!

[@KingJames-dv5pj]

His expectations weren't realistic. It takes more than a few hours to do this especially when it's your first time. Getting the oil pan out is a bitch by itself

[@Sk3wd33]

[@chadchristensen5820]

Grittyness It's kind of like threadlock, but natural....... I was dying laughing 9:20

[@EARTHKEENING]

I have a stupid question , how I would prevent the rod bearings from oil starvation in the first start ?

[@CodexEvans]

Regular oil changes, always filling to the correct amount, using the right oil weight, avoiding oil pump failures and leaks

[@EARTHKEENING]

@CodexEvans oh no I meant after installing new bearing then first start .

[@XmendingfallsX]

Assembly lube or lots of oil. They prefer assembly lube though, it’s to help make sure the parts between are well oiled so there is no friction in the start up process and you get time to get your oil flowing through all the channels. This guy’s video is alright for dummy’s if it works but this doesn’t appear to be a proper way to do this, he’s not using oil or lube and is dry fitting and questions if it matters which way the rod caps go and it does matter. It probably won’t affect anything but it’s important to keep them on the right rod and the right orientation. I’ve switched them up on a sh!t head (no pun intended) before and you’ll get tightness and looseness because the surface is machined to that bearing cap by factory.

[@atomicdmt8763]

recommendation: gloves. ive heard that paper is better than cloth ......fibers can carbonize and mess things up. removing the spark plug would make this easier also.

[@SamShudders]

Gloves? But then you don’t get the natural oils from your skin for initial lubrication.

[@andresrodriguez2142]

I note it to unscrew the guy turn it clockwise. Why?

[@glennverdeyen5685]

Might have an issue here, had me in stitches 😂😂😂. Bearing stuck to the crank 😂😂😂

[@texanopalaita9766]

How is your car? Still running brother?

[@waltercardenas7354]

Was the car a Knocking noise? Nice video

[@SamShudders]

A spun bearing is a clacking higher pitched knock. Take one spark plug out at a time and when the piston is in the down position.. push on it with a clean wooden dowel or something that won’t scratch.. if it pops down once.. then you spin the bearing.. there should be no play.

[@larryhudson9525]

I am a country hick but I always put. Some kind of lube when I install bearings

[@7gmang]

Did you really say: "this how you do with the correct way" !?!?

[@sivaforutube]

You know how sensitive these jobs are? In India, we have precision work shops doing such type of jobs.

[@SamShudders]

This is the American job. Same price and 30% of the time it works every time.

[@atomicdmt8763]

reverse threads............right? didnt realize that

[@JohnSRush]

That’s what I was wondering. Maybe the camera is on “selfie” mode?

[@BrentDunnaway]

Yes, it matters which way they go. 🙄

[@420Brew]

Are you turning the bolts to the right?

Mirror filming.

[@johnmcminn9455]

So i guess the crank doesn't need sanding or polishing ...lol

[@urbanturbine]

Not always. Bearing replacement is scheduled/preventive maintenance on some engines. of course if the bearings are scratched and gauged, you'd wanna pull the crank.

[@johnmcminn9455]

@urbanturbine ok good answer. I just brought my 130k shaky engine to a rebuilder he thinks the aftermarket mounts maybe off causing a shake .the 2004 corolla drives well at 80mph and leaks no oil, no light . going to investigate further

[@WisdomInExperience]

is this a L4 or V6 engine ?

[@samueltoth9479]

I think it’s a v6

[@akmasn9429]

Its very useful but... the rode arm will stay without polishing

[@seantonge2236]

Its a LOT easier with a clean motor. Get a couple cans of Brake Kleen and spray it all down before you start working on it.

[@sirrichardrichard5655]

Note..most connecting rod journals are forged in one piece and then snapped in half, So they will only meet up one way.. maybe yours are different I dont know..

[@belowfray5251]

Good point u made

[@urbanturbine]

you just watched eric the car guy's video and showing it off lol. But yeah, he just put it back. hopefully in the right direction. fifty fifty.

[@jwillzcommonsence8870]

Break cleaner they tell you what not to put it on bt some how that’s where everyone puts it, in a place that’s supposed toto be greased, you degrease it??

I have a Chevy 1996 5.7L 350 Sb is knocking noise. I took the oil pan out and found metal residual. I was told I need a new engine. The engine turn on and drives. Any advice please. Thanks

[@vTacozzYT]

If it’s a rod knock you can probably do the same thing this guy did. Don’t follow step by step but a similar repair is possible.

How many miles

use lint free cloths otherwise you will be back in there uncloging the oil sump filter

How are you tightening nuts and getting them off? Are those left hand thread? Or are you filming backwards because you’re tightening the nuts from what I see and they’re coming off that’s fucking weird bro.
