Kanter Rod Bearings
Kanter rod bearings are precision-made for classic cars to support the crankshaft, reduce friction between the rod and crank, and allow the piston's linear motion to become the crankshaft's rotation. These components are crucial for converting piston movement into crankshaft rotation, fitting into the connecting rod's "big end" with a cap, and relying on engine oil for a protective film. Kanter rod bearings come as two semi-circular halves (shells) that fit into the connecting rod and its cap. They are available in standard sizes, as well as undersizes to match worn crankshaft journals, ensuring smooth rotation and proper lubrication for vintage engines.

Kanter Main Bearings
Kanter Auto main bearings are available for a wide range of classic vehicles, including many Buick, Chevy, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, DeSoto, Plymouth, Dodge, Edsel, Ford, Mercury, Studebaker, GMC, Hudson, Cadillac, Lincoln, LaSalle, American Motors, Nash, and Jeep models. Main bearings hold the crankshaft in place within the engine block and allow it to rotate smoothly on a thin film of oil. Order the set recommended for your application. Product details: * The main bearings support the crankshaft as it rotates. * A thin film of oil flows between the rotating crankshaft and the bearing shells, preventing direct contact and reducing friction. * They are typically plain or journal bearings made with a steel backing and a thin lining of a bearing alloy. * The main function is to allow the crankshaft to spin with minimal wear and to absorb the tremendous forces generated by the engine. * Kanter Auto focuses on providing parts for older vehicles, including main bearings designed for specific makes and models from the classic and muscle car eras. They supply high-quality, precision-fit parts to help restore and maintain engine performance in these vehicles.
