Description: The connecting rod, which connects the piston and crankshaft, is exposed to high loads The connecting rod is guided on the bearing surfaces of the crankshaft with plain bearings (conrod bearings). A defective connecting rod bearing is primarily noticeable through noise (knocking, clacking), which increases as the speed increases. If a damaged connecting rod bearing is not replaced promptly, significant consequential damage (seizing of the bearing) such as the destruction of the bearing surfaces on the crankshaft can occur. Therefore, defective connecting rod bearings should be replaced immediately. When working on the connecting rod, the connecting rod bolts and nuts should always be changed. Here you will receive high-quality replacement according to the title. Please note that the early 356A require different bearing cups that have the "nose" on the other side.
In addition to connecting rod bearings, connecting rod bolts and other engine components, you can find many other spare parts for your Porsche model in our shop.
