The Clevite Con Rod Bearing Set is engineered for high-performance applications across a wide range of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram vehicles from 2003 through 2025. Designed to provide reliable durability and enhanced engine protection, these bearings are ideal for engines operating in medium to high RPM ranges. Featuring a medium level of eccentricity and high crush, the H-Series bearings ensure optimal seating and longevity without the need for flash plating.

Whether you are rebuilding or upgrading your engine, this bearing set offers a trusted solution for maintaining smooth crankshaft rotation and reducing wear under demanding conditions. It is especially suited for crankshafts with oversize fillets, making it a preferred choice for performance enthusiasts and professional mechanics alike.

Key Features:

The Clevite H-Series Con Rod Bearings combine advanced materials and design to deliver dependable performance and protection. Key features include:

• Medium eccentricity for balanced oil clearance and load capacity
• High crush design for superior bearing seating and stability
• Hardened steel backing for enhanced strength and durability
• Thin overlay to reduce friction and improve wear resistance
• Manufactured without flash plating to ensure better seating on crankshafts
• Optimized for crankshafts with oversize fillets
• Suitable for engines operating in medium to high RPM ranges
• Precision engineered to meet or exceed OEM specifications
• Compatible with a broad range of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram models

Construction & Design:

Clevite’s H-Series bearings are constructed with a hardened steel back that provides a robust foundation to withstand high loads and stresses encountered during engine operation. The thin overlay layer is engineered to minimize friction and resist wear, extending the life of both the bearing and the crankshaft journal. The high crush design ensures the bearing shells seat firmly within the connecting rod, preventing movement and enhancing reliability under dynamic conditions.

By eliminating flash plating, these bearings achieve a more precise fit and improved oil film formation, which is critical for maintaining proper lubrication and reducing the risk of premature failure. This thoughtful engineering makes the H-Series an excellent choice for performance engines that demand durability and consistent performance.

Installation & Fitment:

Installation of the Clevite Con Rod Bearing Set is straightforward for experienced engine builders and mechanics. The bearings are designed to fit directly into the connecting rods without modification, provided the crankshaft journals are within specified tolerances. It is important to verify crankshaft fillet sizes and ensure compatibility with oversize fillets when selecting these bearings.

This bearing set fits a wide range of vehicles, including Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 models from 2003 to 2025, Dodge Viper (2003–2025), Dodge Durango (2004–2025), Chrysler 300 (2005–2025), Dodge Magnum (2005–2008), Jeep Grand Cherokee (2005–2025), Dodge Charger (2006–2025), Jeep Commander (2006–2025), Dodge Challenger (2008–2025), SRT Viper (2013–2014), Jeep Grand Cherokee L (2021–2024), Jeep Wrangler (2021–2023), and Jeep Wagoneer (2022–2025).
