Tech Tips:
XDP X-TRA Slick Engine & Fastener Assembly Lubricant (Sold Separately):
The use of XD541 is highly recommended during engine assembly. Apply XDP X-TRA Slick Lubricant to head studs, head bolts, main studs, main bolts, connecting rod bolts, and any other fasteners used during engine assembly.

Using a proper assembly lubricant during fastener installation reduces friction and torque pre-load scatter in the torquing sequence, while also helping to prevent thread galling and seizing.

The XDP XD3019RB Connecting Rod Bolt Kit is an essential upgrade for owners of 2001-2010 GM 2500/3500HD trucks equipped with the 6.6L Duramax engine (LB7/LLY/LBZ/LMM). Crafted from high-strength 8740 Chrome Moly material, these connecting rod bolts are engineered to excel in high-performance applications. With impressive tensile strength levels ranging from 220K to 236K psi and yield strength ranging from 210K to 230K psi, this kit ensures that your engine can handle increased power without risk of stretching, a common issue with factory bolts.

One of the standout features of the XD3019RB is its durability and reusability. Unlike the OEM Torque-To-Yield (TTY) bolts that must be replaced after every use, these connecting rod bolts can be reused multiple times, saving you time and money during maintenance. The bolts also undergo a post-heat treatment rolling process for superior thread integrity, which assures that they remain reliable throughout their lifespan.

This kit completes your engine build with confidence, also tested to bear a max load of over 120KN, making it suitable for serious applications and ensuring that your performance goals are achievable.

To optimize installation, it’s advisable to use XDP’s X-TRA Slick Engine & Fastener Assembly Lubricant, sold separately. This specialized lubricant aids in reducing friction during installation, promoting even torque distribution and extending the life of the bolts.

Upgrade to the XDP XD3019RB Connecting Rod Bolt Kit today and experience the peace of mind that comes with high-strength performance and proven reliability in your Duramax engine.
