Questions and Answers

Why is it critical to match the connecting rod by VIN for Smartstream engines?
Smartstream engines are built with extremely tight manufacturing tolerances. Variations in Hybrid (HEV) duty-cycles versus standard gasoline engines can lead to slight differences in rod weight and bearing surface specifications. Using the VIN ensures you receive the exact metallurgical and dimensional match for your specific engine block.
Can I use this rod in a non-hybrid Smartstream engine?
Compatibility is determined by the specific sub-variant of the Smartstream engine. Because hybrid-specific components are often optimized for distinct torque profiles and start-stop frequency, verifying your VIN with our support team is essential to ensure 100% mechanical compatibility.
Are these connecting rods balanced at the factory?
Yes, each 23510-2J000 connecting rod is engineered with precision-balanced weight distribution to maintain the high efficiency and low-vibration characteristics required by the Smartstream engine architecture.
