Can someone tell me what these are?





and



Thanks,

 

Bearings?

 

I think there shims?? im pretty dumb at this stuff so im proberly wrong lol

 

Shells in the top pic

and a bearing cap in the bottom isnt it unless you mean the shiney bit then that would be the crank

 

bid end shells.

 

shims shells i was close lmao

 

Is that something you get on EBAY ?

 

The bearing cap at the bottom also has a bearing shell in it

 

big end bearings is it not?

 

shells

 

hi,

so we have:
- shells
- big end bearings
- The bearing cap also has a bearing shell in it (bottem pic)
- bid end shells

 

big end bearings and big end shells are the same thing. They protect the crank from the bearing caps during starting etc (ie when the crank isn't surrounded by high pressure oil.

 

thanks guys!!!

 

Just to point out that I-1 is another of Pf's international community and I guess was looking for the UK translations

 

NUTS RuS

you are totally right

I was trying to explain to my english collegue what part need to be replaced in my car...and I only knew the dutch word

 

top pic there are bearings.. left 2 i expect are (well nannered) main bearings.. the ones to the right are big ends (perfectly fine condition)
the next picture down is of someone attaching a conecting rod and big end cap/bearing to the crank, a 'shell' is placed on the conecting rod and another in the big end.. they are then bolted to gether using appropriately named 'big end bolts' these are torqued to the correct setting which hold the cap to the rod once together constant oil lubrication makes the bearing 'float' and allows the crank to rotate inside the road without causing any scoring or damage to the rod/crank..
after time or if there is a poor oil supply the bearing will wear and instead of seeing silver it will go to copper.. this will consequent in a very noisey bottom end (ie loud banging when idling/under load etc) if left it will result in failure of either shell which is VERY VERY BAD

sorry if it a little simplified and if you know that stuff already but i though i would give you a little bit of an idea of how things work..
