MaybeNextTime Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 (edited) Nissan main dealer parts desk. They'll fit perfectly and you can also get the big end bolts, sump gasket, seals and whatever else you'll need. Ebay for big ends - £90 Do you need over size? Crank grinding?. As main bearing failure is often due to lubrication failure and it's a Japanese engine what's the state of the big end bearings? Small ends?

hodge911 Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 if its knocking that bad chances are you,ll need more than just the bearings as i,ll put money on the crank being scored/damaged aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wabbitbosher Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 if its knocking that bad chances are you,ll need more than just the bearings as i,ll put money on the crank being scored/damaged aswell Could be a number of other things wrong , you'd be better off fitting a secondhand or recon Engine imho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 (edited) if its knocking that bad chances are you,ll need more than just the bearings as i,ll put money on the crank being scored/damaged aswell I was just thinking the same thing. Also you haven't said what happened to make it go in the first place. Bottom ends on most diesels are usually pretty bombproof. Unless its been run without oil or something similar in which case its past help Is it the same basic Nissan 2.7D lump as fitted to London Taxis? The taxis aren't turbo but thats top end Edited April 26, 2011 by Vince Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budice Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Google Ferraris Piston Services Ltd branches throughout the country. F.P.S dont deal with general public or even garages, just motor factors. But they would have the parts in stock or be able to get them next day for the motor factor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
