Are they the same? i would imagine so but just want to double check

 

I'd also like to know, bttt

 

Not sure, they may not be as the 4x4 uses offset gudgeon pins and so may require a smidgeon longer rods.

 

 

they may be the same and they may not be
you get heavy and light ones
they all must match in a engine thow

 

easy to tell the heavy frommthe light rods as the counter weight on top is bigger

 

and the heavy ones have a h embost into them

 

 

The rods are the same.
They are picked in batches based upon weight.

These weights are then catagorised as follows:

L = light.
S = standard.
H = heavy.

The above letter is scribed into the big end cap.
Ensure all 4 are the same and you are fine.

 

Cool cheers lads

 

i reckon the heavy ones are teh better ones ???

 

why are they different ?????

whats a better rod to have

 

so which are the preffered choice? L i pressume? to decrease mass.

and then balanced along with the crank, flywheel and clutch

 

they might be a bit lighter but surely they are stronger? (the heavy ones that is)

 

why if its the counter balance thats the extra weight

 

i know they are all steel too, just like the crank

 

i thought they was toffee

 

you mean the scooby conrods then!

 

Or maybe hes got scooby ones fitted

 

wouldnt be surprised if they were as the never get a good spanking anyway so will stay in one piece!

 

nice thread

Seriously though what are the pro's and con's of each rod? Surely ford designed these all for a reason? were some made for different cars? Esc Cos? Sierra??

Any1 got any facts?

 

Ok how about this question, not weight, but are they both the same length? if you put them next to to eachother are they same.

 

FAstmaul i would of pressumed its the same from the above

Fook knows though so btt
