King Engine Bearings Ford BDA/BDB/BDC/BDD (Size 001) Performance Rod Bearing Set
SKU: K006 CR4540XP001
Easy — 1–2 hours
Overview
These bearings feature a lead/tin/copper Babbitt overlay over a steel backing, providing superior stability and durability. King's advanced control measures ensure wall thickness tolerances are maintained at +/- .0001 inches. The XP-Series rod bearings are narrowed on the crank cheek side with increased crush height, promoting improved bearing-to-bore contact, heat transfer, and reduced spin potential in high-rpm scenarios.
