You should replace all. That being said if it was my car it would get 1 rod.........

Another OpinionIn general, if a connecting rod needs to be replaced, it's because the bearing has worn out and the rod was damaged.

A good machine shop can recondition the remaining rods and bring them back to original condition, then you only need to replace the one rod.

The key, however, is to have all rods reconditioned, even the new one should go through the procedure since they are sometimes not perfectly straight.

You'll no doubt need to recondition or replace the crankshaft if a rod has failed; when that happens the crankshaft often goes through some difficulty. If it were mine, I'd have the block "align bored" just to make certain that nothing terrible has happened.

Beyond that, the cylinders and head needs to be serviced just as any other engine while you have everything apart.
