  1. Tighten all main bearing bolts to 108 Nm (80 ft. lbs.) torque.
  2. Install the main bearing cap brace. Tighten nuts to 47 Nm (35 ft. lbs.) .




Connecting Rod Nuts 33 ft.lb

    Mains should be done in stages: 40ft/lbs,70ft/lbs then final at 80ft/lbs. all bolt should be tightened at each stage bfore increasing torque and proceeding to next stage. this serves to prevent out-of round "crushing'' of the larger mains and helps to insure a uniform "crush" on the bearing material.

    Does this include a 2005 Jeep Liberty?

You can find just about all of the torque specs that you should need here. Also you might want to order yourself a Chilton manual. They usually have all of the specs in the back of the book and throughout the different sections.

The Head bolt torque is as follows:

1. Tighten all bolt in the sequence shown in the image below to 22 ft. lbs.
2. Tighten all bolt in the sequence shown in the image below to 45 ft. lbs.
3. Check all bolt to verify they are torqued to 45 ft.lbs in the sequence shown below.
4. Tighten bolts in sequence:
a. Bolts 1-10 to 110 ft.lbs.
b. Bolt 11 to 100 ft. lbs.
c. Bolts 12-14 to 110 ft.lbs.

If you are reusing the head bolts carefully check the bolts for necked down threads.

The main bearing cap bolts are torqued to 80 ft. lbs.

The connecting rod nuts are torqued to 33 ft. lbs.

I hope this helps.

Rebuilding 2002 jeep 4.0 need torque for the crank and connecting rods

Mains, 80, rods, 33...Don't forget to plasti-gauge bearings before final install. Make sure there isn't any lube on saddles or bearing backs before putting it together. Use pre-assembly lube on bearing faces and crank pins. Check that crank spins freely after each cap is torqued. If not find out why before continuing.

98 Grand C jeep 4litre crankshaft end play

Usually this can be done but I think that if you have wear on thrust faces, there is likely wear on support faces as well, Once you have the pan off, plastigage both rod and main bearings. if out of specs, you really should change all of them!! Make sure you torque everything properly and avoid getting oil on backs of bearings when installing... can lead to spun bearing.
good luck
