How to install a rod baring on a 2001 grandam v6

Hi Anony, What I can make out is 15 ~ 18 Cheers Greg.

When a vehicle is in 3 feet of water, the electrical
is usually damaged to the point that the vehicle
is scrapped
The vehicle is 12 years old or more,so even without
the water in there, it has some wear & you can use google
to check for bulletins of known engine issues,but I don't
think your going to fix that, even without the water issues.
The motor would have to come apart to find the issue & you
may rebuild it & never know

You can't go through the bottom because the crankshaft will be in your way as well as the balance shaft assembly. The pan and balance shafts need to be removed in any case so you can disconnect the rod from the crankshaft. But, the cylinder head needs off come off to get the piston out.
Big job and generally you are better off replacing the engine.
I know it's a tough decision but I actually scrapped a 2000 last year that was in otherwise perfect condition rather than be bothered with the aggrivation of doing that job!!! And, I do this for a living!!!

remove engine from car and install on an engine stand, remove head and oil pan, disconnect lowe rod bearing cap and remove piston through the top, measure crank with a micrometer to get proper bearing size, install rod onto piston and install using ring compressor then install on crank shaft, lube well, reassemble engine and install in car

look at the order of the rockers arm stands. the rocker arms itself. some are higher. the longer rods go to these arms. the shorter one go to the lower arms.

dnt know what size is the bolt at the end of the line bythe gear box on my 2001 grand amgt replacing power steering pressure hose

I have a 2002 Escape V6. I had a squeak when turning... even when standing still. It was fairly low mileage: 40,000 miles?
It was the outer tie rod. You could feel it squeak in your hand while someone else turned the steering wheel.
I disconnected the tie rod. I wasn't worn, just squeaky. I squirted a little WD40 inside the boot, and worked it in. Reassembled and squeak gone.
I bought a replacement tie rod, but never had to put it on. I'm now at 110,000 miles.

yes of course u need a repair manual. but if ur familiar the car u dont need to..

rate me FIXYA!....thanks!
