The HOT RODS 8703 High-Performance Connecting Rod Kit provides the components needed to repair a crankshaft instead of replacing the complete assembly. The kit includes a connecting rod, crank pin, crank bearing, wrist pin bearing, and thrust washers.
The connecting rod is made from case-hardened 8620 AISI forged steel. The 8620 AISI carburized crank pin is designed for strength and durability, while the included thrust washers use SAE-recommended phosphor bronze. The crank pin bearing features a silver coating for improved sliding at reduced temperatures, and a wrist pin bearing is also included.
This HOT RODS kit fits select Yamaha applications, including 2011–2014 YFM450FGP Grizzly 4WD EPS [IRS], 2006–2009 YXR450F Rhino 450, and 2007–2008 YFM450FG Grizzly 4WD [IRS]. Verify the vehicle application before ordering.
