FAQ
Will TW-610S fit my Duramax?
Yes—fits 2001–2016 6.6L Duramax LB7/LLY/LBZ/LMM/LML.
Is this a complete main bearing kit?
No—this is the thrust washer set only. Pair with MS-2218P/H/HX main bearings as needed.
When should I choose HX main bearings?
Use MS-2218HX when you need approximately +.001" extra oil clearance (performance/looser clearances); otherwise run STD or undersize as required by machining.
Any install tips?
Measure and set crankshaft endplay per GM/Chevy specs; verify bearing crush and cleanliness. Use assembly lube and torque fasteners to spec.
