Crankshaft Bearings

Bearings are used to reduce friction between two engine parts. Crankshaft bearings allow the rotating crankshaft to turn with minimal resistance in the stationary engine sump. There are various types of bearings, including needle bearings, tapered roller bearings and plain bearings, but most crankshafts are equipped with what are known as ball bearings.

Crankshaft bearings are heavily loaded and are therefore subject to high wear. Replacing them is in many cases a big job because the engine block must be disassembled and dismantled.
