3SGTE rod bearings

[tamalpro]

i saw this rod bearings that said to be much better then OEM, they say they are much stronger and can tolerate heat much better, woul be a good idea to change my bearings atleast just for maintance? my 2 has 94k miles, im confident that it shouldnt be that hard [lees than 3 hours] the brand its named -King-

Did you know that toyota engines are blueprinted from the factory? If you call the dealer for the bearings they will ask you for codes that are stamped into the engine in various places. Do you think the aftermarket bearings will be correct if the dealer has to ask for these codes to get them correct? Unless you are cutting the crank I'd stay OEM.

don't change your bearings unless you're doing a full rebuild.

i have King Race bearings in my 2.1L stroker and they are very high quality bearings. the OEM bearings are aluminum, the King bearings are a tri-metal bearing.

yeah save it for when you need a rebuild. no need to tamper with it.
