Sealed Power Engine Crankshaft Main Bearing Set P/N:960M 50
Sealed 960M 40 main bearing set for the 1958-1962 Chevrolet Impala 6-cylinder 3.8L and other vehicles supports the crankshaft so it can turn in the block. These crankshaft main bearings sit between the crank journals and the block, and they are replaced during an engine rebuild.
A knock from the lower engine or a low oil pressure reading can mean worn main bearings, though the oil pump and the connecting rod bearings can be behind those signs too, so find the cause before you order. This listing is one set, and the engine takes one set.
Among the vehicles it fits are the 1958-1962 Chevrolet Impala 6-cylinder 3.8L, the 1960-1962 Chevrolet Suburban 6-cylinder 3.8L and the 1961-1962 Suburban 6-cylinder 4.3L, and the 1960-1963 Chevrolet K20 Pickup 6-cylinder 3.8L and the 1961-1962 K20 Pickup 6-cylinder 4.3L. The set meets or exceeds OEM specifications.
