The ACL 4B8440HX-STD rod bearing set is engineered for those who demand reliability and performance from their engine components. Designed specifically for the Suzuki Grand Vitara from 1988 to 2017, these high-performance bearings utilize advanced metallurgy and design principles to ensure optimal operation under demanding conditions.
Key Features
- High Strength Overlay Plate: Reduced thickness enhances fatigue properties, allowing for greater durability at higher RPMs.
- Hardened Steel Backs: All rod bearings feature hardened steel backs, providing superior support for the bearing lining and enhancing retention within the housing.
- Increased Crush: Improved bearing retention ensures stability during operation, minimizing the risk of failure.
