The connecting rod links the piston to the crankshaft and turns the up-and-down force of combustion into the rotation that powers your machine. Along with related parts such as bearings and pins, it takes enormous stress on every stroke, so its condition is critical to engine strength and longevity. Riders most often replace connecting rods and parts after a bent or broken rod, knocking or ticking noises from the bottom end, worn or damaged bearings, metal in the oil, or an engine rebuild following overheating, oil starvation, or water ingestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose Genuine OEM Yamaha Parts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoosing original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts ensures your vehicle maintains its factory-standard performance, reliability, and fuel efficiency.

Because a failing rod often damages bearings and nearby parts, inspect the crankshaft, bearings, piston, and cylinder before reassembly. Since these parts vary by model, model year, and engine, confirm the correct parts and inspection procedures using your Yamaha service manual or factory schematic, or contact us with your model and VIN and we will help you match them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How do mud, water, sand, and heat affect connecting rods and parts on the trail?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Connecting rods live inside the engine, but harsh conditions can still damage them indirectly. Water or dust getting past the intake or breather can contaminate the oil or cause hydrolock, and heavy heat or low oil can starve the bearings. Keep your air filter and breather lines clean and sealed, change your oil regularly, and after deep water crossings check for milky oil or unusual noises. Follow your Yamaha service manual for correct installation and service guidance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; color: #ff2a00;\"\u003ePRO TIP:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; color: blue;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/buywitchdoctors.com\/blogs\/news\/expert-installation-guide-stop-utv-gasket-leaks-install-them-correctly\" title=\"Direct link to buywitchdoctors.com blog on Expert Installation Guide: Stop UTV Gasket Leaks- Install them Correctly\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; color: blue;\"\u003eExpert Installation Guide: Stop UTV Gasket Leaks- Install them correctly.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: auto; margin-bottom: auto; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003ePRO TIP: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/buywitchdoctors.com\/blogs\/news\/yamaha-oem-vs-aftermarket-parts-comparison\" title=\"Direct link to Buywitchdoctors.com blog about Yamaha OEM vs. Aftermarket Parts: Are Factory Components Best for Your Trail Riding?\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: blue;\"\u003eLearn More about Yamaha OEM vs. Aftermarket Parts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003ePRO TIP:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/buywitchdoctors.com\/blogs\/news\/utv-atv-crankshaft-bearings-symptoms-fix\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Direct link to Buywitchdoctors.com blog about How to Tell If Your UTV or ATV Crankshaft Bearings Are Failing\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: blue;\"\u003eHow to Tell If Your UTV or ATV Crankshaft Bearings Are Failing?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; color: #ff2a00;\"\u003ePRO TIP: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/buywitchdoctors.com\/blogs\/news\/a-buyer-s-guide-to-utv-atv-engine-components\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Direct link to Buywitchdoctors.com blog about A Buyer’s Guide To UTV\/ATV Internal Engine Components\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: blue;\"\u003eA Buyer’s Guide To UTV\/ATV Internal Engine Components\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"tab-stops: center 3.25in;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: red;\"\u003ePRO TIP: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/buywitchdoctors.com\/blogs\/news\/atv-utv-engine-crankcase-buyers-guide-rebuild-tips\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Direct link to Buywitchdoctors.com blog about ATV\/UTV Engine Crankcase Buyer’s Guide: Structural Integrity Over Cutting Corners\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: blue;\"\u003eATV\/UTV Engine Crankcase Buyer’s Guide: Structural Integrity Over Cutting Corners\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUpgrade Your Ride's Engine Bottom End \u0026amp; Top End Performance Today\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStrong, factory-fit connecting rods and parts help your engine turn power smoothly and reliably on every ride.
