Detailed Description

Sealed Power 1400AA connecting rod bearing is engineered for standard-size service in Ford and Mercury A-Series aluminum engines. The bearing dimensions are specified for controlled fitment, including housing bore, shaft diameter, oil clearance, and wall thickness, helping maintain proper rod bearing geometry during engine repair or rebuild work. This part cross-references CB1380A and CB1380P for the same application. It is a practical choice for technicians servicing Ford Escort, Ford Focus, Mercury Tracer, and Mercury Lynx engines that require a standard-size connecting rod bearing.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify crankshaft journal size, housing bore, and oil clearance before installation. Clean all bearing surfaces thoroughly, follow the engine builder’s torque specifications, and confirm that the bearing matches the standard-size application listed for your vehicle. For best results, measure clearances during assembly rather than relying on visual inspection alone.
