Fig. Main bearing torque sequence-2.5L engine



Fig. Main bearing torque sequence-3.3L engine



Fig. Main bearing torque sequence-4.0L engine

Main Bearing Torque 67-74 ft lbs
Rod Bearings Torque 28 - 33 ft lbs

I need the torque specs for the connecting rod and main be

I show the main bearing torque to be 70 ft.lbs.
The rod caps are torqued to 38 ft.lbs.
Best of Luck to you..

Main bearing torque is 56-62 Ft/Lbs..I would use 60
Rod bearing torque is 23-28 Ft/Lbs..I would use 25

The Main Bearing Cap Torque:
38 Foot pounds (Final torque)

The Rod Bearing Cap Torque:
Torque sequence:
Step 1: Torque to 10-12 Ft/Lbs
Step 2: Torque to 28-33 Ft/Lbs

Hope help with this (remember rated this post). TY for using Fixya.
