Construction & Design:
King Engine Bearings utilizes a bimetal design featuring an aluminum-silicon alloy base that provides a strong, wear-resistant surface ideal for main bearing applications. This material combination offers excellent conformability and fatigue resistance, critical for maintaining engine reliability over time. The bearings are engineered to meet or exceed OEM tolerances, ensuring a precise fit and optimal oil film thickness for effective lubrication.
The size 0.25 designation indicates these bearings are undersized by 0.25mm, making them suitable for engines where the crankshaft journals have been machined to restore smoothness and roundness. This precision sizing helps maintain proper bearing clearance, which is essential for preventing metal-to-metal contact and ensuring long engine life.
Installation & Fitment:
This main bearing set is designed for direct replacement in compatible Toyota and Scion engines without modification. It fits the following vehicles equipped with 2AR-FE or 2AR-FXE engines:
- Scion tC Base 2011–2016
- Lexus ES300h Base 2013–2018
- Lexus NX300h Base 2015–2021, F Sport Black Line 2021, Luxury 2020–2021
