Engine Bearing Set Overview

This engine connecting rod bearing set is built for Honda applications that need a precise bearing surface between the connecting rod and crankshaft journal. The RB200 is a premium-grade replacement engineered for dependable oil film control, reduced friction, and consistent engine operation under load.

Fits 1976-1995 Honda Accord, Civic, Civic del Sol, CRX, and Prelude, with application-specific notes where listed. The RB200 part number is used across multiple Honda engine rebuild applications, including Honda Civic and Honda Accord coverage.

Key Features

• Premium-grade connecting rod bearing set for engine rebuild service
• Multi-layer bearing construction with steel backing for structural strength
• Copper or bronze intermediate layer for load capacity
• Wear-resistant overlay for embeddability and friction control
• Built to meet or exceed OEM quality standards

Detailed Description

The RB200 connecting rod bearing set is designed to restore the critical interface between the connecting rod and crankshaft journal. Its layered construction supports load handling, helps maintain lubrication flow, and reduces metal-to-metal contact during engine operation. This makes it a practical choice for rebuilds where bearing clearance, surface integrity, and long-term durability matter.

Fitment includes 1976-1983 Honda Accord, 1977-1983 Honda Civic, 1979-1982 Honda Prelude, 1984-1987 Honda Civic with EW1 and D15A2 notes, 1988-1991 Honda CRX, and 1993-1995 Honda Civic del Sol. The RB200 also covers 1985-1995 Honda Civic applications, making it relevant for a wide range of Honda engine service work.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive bearing wear during engine rebuilds
• Loss of proper oil film at the rod journal
• Friction-related damage between rod and crankshaft surfaces
• Load-related bearing distress in high-mileage engines
• Inconsistent engine performance caused by worn rod bearings

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the engine code and bearing size before installation, especially on applications with notes such as EW1 and D15A2. Clean the connecting rod and crankshaft journal surfaces thoroughly, and confirm proper oil clearance during assembly. Use standard engine rebuild procedures and follow the service specifications for the specific Honda application.

Quality Assurance

DNJ connecting rod bearing sets are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM quality standards for professional-grade reliability. The RB200 is built with a steel-backed, multi-layer design intended to support demanding engine conditions and consistent rebuild results.
