Hello all,
I was looking over some parts I have, supposedly from an 18RG and just wanted to compare some spec to some other people's 18RG bits.
The questions were raised because my spares are not the same as the con rods in my brother's 18RGU.
Question: Which con rods are 18RG(U)(E) genuine parts?
My Brother's
On my brother's ones, on the side that has the old toytota emblem on the big end of the inner part of the I-beam, there is also a protruding square shape made into them that is closer to the middle of the I-beam section.
My Spares:
My spare con rods do not have this square shaped protrusion made into them.
On the reverse side, on the gudgeon pin end, they have cast into them: 942M
On the side of this set, there is a protruding line cast into them that is ~5mm wide on the beam section and ~7mm wide around the Gudgeon pin bushing hole.
They also have oil squirters on the big end and an oil hole in the Gudgeon bushing hole.
If you are 100% sure that you have 18RG(U)(E) conrods, could you please give me a description of any landmark features.
Likewise, if you are 100% sure that you have 18R (C) conrods, could you please give me a description of any landmark features on those.
My peace of mind depends on you.
Thanks.
Steve M
