    FAQ

    How do I know if my EJ engine has thrust in the #3 position?

    Thrust bearing location varies by EJ engine block and model year. Confirm which main bearing carries the thrust surface on your specific block before ordering; this set is for engines with thrust in the #3 position.

    What does "Standard Size" mean?

    Standard size means the bearings are sized for a stock, unmachined crankshaft journal.

    What vehicle does this fit?

    This set fits the 1998 Subaru Forester.

    Does this set include rod bearings?

    No. This is a main bearing set only; connecting rod bearings for the EJ-series are sold separately by ACL.
