So I'm having some confusion on rods, bearings, and bolts and hopefully someone can help me sort it out. Truck is an 03 the block has a date of 06 on the side of it. ECM has the 03 ESN on it. But Im not sure what the rods are out of. Im hoping they are 89-02 rods but not sure. Theyre not the cracked rods they are machined. The machine shop ordered bearings for me and they are clevite CB-1873AP .25mm but the upper bearing is the only on that fits. the lower on on the cap doesnt fit. (tang is on the wrong side) From what I understand the CB-1873AP .25mm consists of an upper [(3901171) (supposed to be the same as 89-02)] and a lower (4892795) The next problem I ran into is with the rod bolts. The shop manual lists a TTY spec but the new rod bolts I got certainly dont look like they are TTY. Wondering if they are the right bolts or if there is a different torque spec for those bolts. Thanks in advance guys! I just hope someone who has some answers manages to make it all the way through my ramblings. Ill post some pictures of everything in just a second.
Thanks again -Chris
