Ok..I just took off the oil pan and their they were metal shavings checked my rod bearings it's number 6....HOW DO I FIND THE SIZE SO I CAN REPLACE THEM?????

 

Should be stamped on the back of the insert.

 

Sorry I am new to this and not a Mechanic...iam willing to do the job tho...what is a insert and where is it located

 

I'm sure he means on the back side of the bearing itself.

 

This might not be something as simple as just replacing the bearing with another bearing. You have to know why this bearing became "bad" and what the condition of the crank is.

 

if your gonna replace 1 set replace em jus my .02

 

Don't know how to upload pics....
Ok...I think the oil pump went out in it....I heard a knocking sound looked down and no oil pressure ...shut it off towed it home... took off pan found metal shavings...looked around number 6 was jacked up.. pulled it off no issues...lil very lil groves ...everyone I showed pics to told me take a emery cloth to it and it should be fine...or take it out and get it reground and a whole bunch of stuff ....try this first if it don't work that well fix it again and put it on craigslist

 

I was thinking of replacing all 12 of them...

 

OK. Your crank is probably shot. If your crank has been turned down, say .010. that will be stamped on the back of the bearing insert. Don't mix up or turn around the rod caps. You should at least have a book. You have a snowball's chance you can dress up the journal and slap in fresh inserts and expect it to work at all...at least it's cheap! Check Rockauto.com.

 

How do I pull the crank out..with out taking the engine out...I keep trying to attach pics but every time I do it tells me this app crashed and is forcing close

 

Here are some pics of my crank

 

I got it to upload pics...sweet

 

Manage attachments > browse > select > upload. For me the trick was it doesn't really tell you when it's done. On the bottom left of the box something disappears. If you cancel or move the box you can see your attachment listed.
Don't hesitate to use "preview post", or "Edit", on your post after it's posted.

How many miles on it. It was fine then all the sudden started knocking? Was it full of decent oil?

 

No oil pressure ...got the pics to upload ....it has 250,000 miles....but everything else is good...trans...4*4... only number 6 rod bearing was bad...did u see my pics

Yea, I see allot of them! Not quite sure what to say. It almost looks like deposits , like the bearing rubbed off on them. Being worn down, and being out of round are the real killers. Are you familiar with Plastigauge?
