Main Bearing Cap

Main Bearing Cap





Reinstall the bearings and caps, then torque the bearing cap bolts to 74 Nm (7.5 kgf-m, 54 ft. lbs.), and the bearing cap side bolts to 49 Nm (5.0 kgf-m, 36 ft. lbs.), in the proper sequence.





Tighten the bearing cap bolts, and then the bearing cap side bolts to the specified torque in the sequence as shown. Repeat the torque sequence again to measure the bolts are properly torqued.
