What is a rod bearing?

Rod bearing (short for connecting rod bearing) Is the bearing where the connecting rod is attached to the rotating crankshaft.


How do replace connecting rod bearings?

1. Clean the bearing surface of connecting rod and connecting rod cap. 2. Clean upper connecting rod bearing and lubricate the bearing face with clean engine oil. 3. Clean lower connecting rod bearing and lubricate the bearing face with clean engine oil. NOTE: Align the tabs on the connecting rod bearingswith the tab grooves in the connecting rod. 4. Install upper connecting rod bearing in connecting rod. 5. Pull the connecting rod into position against thecrankshaft. The connecting rod may need to be rotated in order to prevent contact with the piston cooling jet. 6. Install lower connecting rod bearing in connecting rod cap. 7. Install bearing cap in position on connecting rod. Ensure that the identification numbers are stamped on the same side. 8. If you have Type A connecting rods, install two bolts and two nuts. If you have Type B connecting rods, install two bolts. The torque is very important. It's probably 40 ft pounds plus 1/4 turn.9. Repeat Steps 1 through 8 for the remaining connecting rod bearings.

How much is it to fix a rod on the engine of a '97 Chevy Tracker?

I'm going to assume that you refer to a connecting rod in the engine. Unfortunately, this isn't an easy task to undertake nor a cheap one to pay for. If the connecting rod snapped it may have caused unrepairable damage while being spun as the crankshaft turned. You should be able to see this by removing the oil pan (and perhaps pump) and inspecting the inside of the engine block, pistons, and crank. If you've beaten the odds and there is no damage, it may be possible to replace a connecting rod with the engine in the car; I do not know. If it is at all possible, it will be difficult. If you're up for the task, try it yourself. If you're targeting paying a mechanic to do this, it may be cheaper to install a new engine. You'll have to talk with someone with far more experience with this car than I to get a confident answer. If the connecting rod broke or a bearing spun due to insufficient oil flow/pressure than I would not consider simply trying to replace a rod or bearing. In any case, if you have a broken or damage connecting rod, the costs will not be cheap. You might be able to swap in an engine from a junkyard yourself for less than .00 dollars or you may pay a mechanic to swap in a brand new turnkey style engine and the cost may be .00 dollars. Most likely, if you choose to pay a mechanic to swap a new engine in. Expect a bill of at least .00. If you pay a mechanic to change the connecting rod, you might be able to get away with .00. However, this may not be possible or feasible. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, Good luck. -MJ P.S. If it wasn't a connecting rod that is damaged then ignore what I said. If the connecting rod didn't snap, also ignore it.

What is difference between piston rod and connecting rod?

A piston rod connects the piston to the crankshaft in an engine, transmitting the force from the expanding gas to the crankshaft to generate motion. A connecting rod connects the piston to the crankshaft, converting the linear motion of the piston into rotational motion to drive the crankshaft. In summary, the piston rod is part of the piston assembly, while the connecting rod is part of the crankshaft assembly in an engine.
