Cheap homesteading is working on his Massey 231. He is putting the crank and connecting rods in a Perkins 152. He is going to check the rod and main bearings with plastic gauge.

When we installed pistons we had tubing on the rod bolts so they wouldn't scratch anything.
Nice job.

This was an interesting video to see the inner workings of the engine. good job on the rebuild.

[@cheaphomesteading]

The engine rebuild is going slowly. Such a busy time of year to get anything done. It’s almost back together. Thanks for watching my friend

Great work. Very impressed.

JUst bought a new a3.152 long motor. It came with a strict warning not to double click the torque wrench. It seems this increases the torque above the set value.

Good job Sir thanks 🇮🇳👍😁

Were the inside and outside thrust washers different sizes? When I received the reliance thrust washer set that matches my build number, both the inside and outside were the same size. The inside and outside washers I took off during the engine disassembly were different sizes. The set I received seems to only work for the inside. Thanks!

when a new crank is being fitted you need standard bearings, obviously the old crank had already been ground 10 thou .

Good informative video

[@sixmagpies]

Did ya forget some of the locking tabs on the big ends?

[@henrysosebee9241]

Which way did you turn the rods I know about the. Pistons which side of the block is the bearing lock located on

I have a massy 35.Can I do a in the frame ring replacement for the Perkins Diesel ?

[@eQualitydll]

Hello. i need your help.
what's the con rod's position on the piston? i lost my marks

[@mrmcgyverman]

Can the crank bearings be changed without tearing the motor completely down? I have a mf245 that is losing oil pressure after 30 minutes. I am going to do a complete rebuild after the shop is built, but need the tractor to finish building the shop.

[@cheaphomesteading]

You should be able to do it. Remove the oil pan. Loosen off the mains off and remove one cap at a time and roll the old bearing out with the crank and roll the new one in by turning the crank in. Make sure you check with plastic gauge after. And check that the crank is OK. Have a good one

[@chrisfleming5109]

What brand of piston rings are you fitting here?

[@cheaphomesteading]

I can’t remember I got it from Fossett tractor supply in St., Catharine’s, Ontario Canada they ship.

[@JoseOrtiz-im5wu]

Do you remove the plastic gauge or leave it there?

[@oldworldlumber2202]

So how did you know what was the front side of the rod?

[@cheaphomesteading]

The number is stamped on one side of rod I installed the number to the same side of the block as I removed them. Thanks for watching man

[@michaelreid85]

what was the torque setting for the bigend bearing?

[@kennethervin4540]

what is the torque setting for the piston rod caps?

[@redram646]

Would you like to rebuild my Perkins ? 😁
