FAQ
Is this a full engine set?
No—this is one rod pair (upper + lower) for one journal. Order eight pairs for a complete engine.
Will STD fit my crank?
STD fits unground, standard-size journals. Measure your crank or consult your machine shop.
What’s the material difference?
A-Series uses a tri-metal upper for load capacity and a bi-metal aluminum lower for scuff resistance and conformity—ideal for OE rebuilds.
Torque or clearance tips?
Always check oil clearance with plastigage or micrometers and follow Ford/Cummins-spec procedures; use proper assembly lube and torque/angle specs.
