mvusse Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Should be able to from underneath after dropping the oil pan, but it would be a pain in the behindto do it from underneath a vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnkyboy Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Yes as long as there is no journal damage but I'm guessing that if your changing them its because its knocking so the damage is probably already done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvusse Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 If you're going to replace the rod bearings you should also do the mains, which would make replacing the rod bearings seem like a piece of cake. As mnkyboy stated another question is how badly the crank is damaged and will it need work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
