The flat spots on a crank are called journals. There are main caps with bearings both sides that hold the crank in the block. The conn rods have similar bearings & they also attach to crank journals. The bearings are c-shaped copper things that go in the conn rod & main caps for the crank.

How do you Replace rod bearing?
If the bearing has not spun or seized, you drop the oil pan, take the rod cap off of the rod and put the new bearing in. The bearing is in two pieces, half in the rod and half in the rod cap. If the bearing has spun, you should remove the crankshaft and either have the rod journal polished or machined for a thicker bearing.

What happens when rod bearings are to tight?
When rod bearing clearance is too tight the end result is what is called a spun bearing -- definitely a bad thing. Bearing clearance is the difference between the inside diameter of the bearing and the outside diameter of the crankshaft journal to which it is clamped. The bearing is supplied pressurized oil fed by the oil pump, it should never touch the crankshaft journal but should always float on a wedge of oil. If the clearance is too tight the bearing touches or drags on the crankshaft journal and the journal grabs the bearing and spins it inside the housing into which it is clamped -- which in the case of a rod bearing is the big end of the connecting rod. Once this happens it all pretty much self destructs as it chews up the big end of the connecting rod and the crankshaft journal as well.
