Rebuild Question

[750_sport]

My 99 n/t seems to have rod bearing problems , flakes in the oil. Never over heated but gets warm with throttle, holes 1,2,3, have 211 psi, hole 4 has 185psi(next to battery)

I was going to pull the pan off today. and have a look around (if the rain stops)

Has anyone pulled the oil pan to swap con rod bearings? Or did you just pull the motor?

Also what is a good source for online parts? OEM parts


Thanks....
Michael

Easy to pull pan on 2wd turbo. Spun rod bearings usually means you spun a balance shaft bearing first that lowers the oil pressure.
