    Hi guys,

    The rod down there has a very odd looking mark under the bearing. Do you think it spun the bearing?

    Would you use this on your car and why?
    I plan on using a K04 on my car btw.

    Thanks for any help

    Crank journal bearing surface looks to be a little corroded as if the OCI was too long. It does not look like it spun. Wrist pin bearing looks OK but hard to tell from photo. Measure to see if it meets roundness and diameter specs.

    Clean it up and run it. It's fine. Every used rod I've pulled apart had bearing imprints like that.
