6 CYLINDER THRUST BEARING MODIFICATION

TR250, 5, 6, Vitesse, 2000 2-5PI. i.e. all 6 cylinder engines suffer from poor crank thrust location and at worst the thrust bearings can fall out. Revington TR have devised a modification process for improving this situation where by the back of the cap which locates the rear thrust bearing is machined to accommodate a second half thus halving the load on the original thrust bearing. The two halves are pinned in place to prevent them from spinning.

Revington TR can modify your engine to introduce this additional thrust bearing, but please note that this procedure can only be done in our workshops during the course of an engine rebuild as it is necessary to remove the crankshaft to enable the block and cap to be correctly machined. If the engine is not being rebuilt in our workshop, you will need to be provided with the necessary individual components.

In addition please see the notes under the following part numbers.
