KMP Big-End Bearing Set 85036B (0.020" undersize)
Part 85036B is a KMP Brand big-end bearing set: the split shells that sit between each connecting rod and the crankshaft journal. This set is 0.020" undersize.
About this part
Every power stroke is transferred from the connecting rod to the crank through these shells. They are a wear part by design: softer than the crank so that the shells, not the crankshaft, take the damage when lubrication is poor.
When to replace it
- A deep knock under load that rises with engine speed
- Low oil pressure when the engine is hot
- Bronze or copper flakes in the drained oil or filter
- Scored or polished shells found during an inspection
Before you order
Measure the crank journals before ordering. Standard shells suit an unground crank; undersize sets (marked 0.010" / 0.25 mm and up) are for a crank that has been reground by that amount.
If the old part has no readable number, send us a clear photo with the engine or alternator nameplate and we will identify it before you buy.
Questions
Do I need standard or undersize shells?
It depends on the crankshaft. A crank that has never been ground takes standard (STD) shells; a reground crank takes the undersize that matches the regrind. Measure the journal or ask the machine shop that did the work.
Is this a complete engine set?
Bearing sets are packed per engine. Check the quantity against the number of cylinders when the set arrives, and call us if anything is missing.
