FAQ

Is .020" the same as 0.50 mm?
Yes. .020" undersize equals 0.50 mm undersize on the main journals.
Will this fit both 5.9L and 6.7L Cummins?
Yes—this set covers B-Series 5.9L (12V/24V) and 6.7L ISB platforms from 1989–2018; confirm by ESN for edge cases.
Does the set include thrust bearings?
Applications vary. Many B-Series builds use thrust integrated at the center main; verify thrust component configuration by ESN.
Do I need machine work to run .020" undersize bearings?
Yes—.020" undersize bearings are used after crankshaft journals are reground to the matching undersize specification.
Torque specs?
Always use the Cummins service manual for your exact engine; torque values and sequences vary by model year and fastener type.
