Still have the original parts, which looked pretty good BTW. Thought I was doing the right thing by going ahead and replacing them when I was doing the OPG and motor mounts...

Thanks Stan, do you think they will do a group buy in for less?

There was recently a discussion over on the 928 Owner's Club Web Forums about doing mains and rod bearings without pulling the engine. I wouldn't recommend anyone to change the mains that way, BUT, it can de done.

Reviving this old thread.
I removed my rod caps today on my 81's engine with 61K miles.
I started with rod #6 first.
Then moved over to the next journal- #3- better
then Cyl 1
then #2
The rest...
What would cause this wear on 2/6? Perhaps a coolant/oil mix at some point?
should I go thru the effort, pull the cradle and check the mains?
