Short Description: Restore the heart of your engine with this precision-engineered set of connecting rod brasses. Essential for any engine overhaul, these bushings ensure smooth piston movement and protect your crankshaft from premature wear.

Technical Specifications:

• Compatibility: Dnepr MT-11 (and compatible models)
• Manufacturer Code / SKU: MT10-36-1000104
• Part Type: Engine (Crank Gear / Bottom End)

Purpose and Role in the Motorcycle (based on the original manual):
The connecting rod brasses, or bearing bushings, are critical components located in the "big end" of the connecting rods. Their primary role is to act as a sacrificial wear layer between the forged steel I-section connecting rod and the crankshaft crankpins. Because the Dnepr MT-11 is a heavy-duty motorcycle, these bushings endure immense pressure and thermal stress during every combustion cycle. According to the technical manual, replacing these bushings is vital during any engine overhaul to prevent the crankpins themselves from wearing down, which would otherwise require a complete and costly crankshaft replacement. Signs that these bushings need replacement include abnormal knocking sounds from the bottom end of the engine or a significant drop in oil pressure within the crankcase.

Benefits of Buying:

• Exact Technical Fit: Manufactured to the strict tolerances required for the Dnepr MT-11 to ensure a perfect oil film is maintained between the rod and the crankshaft.
• Extended Engine Life: By replacing these "brasses" during your rebuild, you effectively protect the crankshaft crankpins from direct friction and premature failure.
• Enhanced Engine Stability: High-quality bushings reduce internal vibration and noise, restoring the smooth, rhythmic operation characteristic of a well-tuned Dnepr engine.
