Rocker Arm/Tie-rod Bearing, Sleeve Inspe ction
•
Visually inspect the rocker arm/tie-rod sleeves and needle
bearings.
•
The rollers in a needle bearing normally w ear very little,
and wear is difficult to measure. Instead of measuring,
inspect the bearing for abrasion, color change, or other
damage.
If there is any doubt as to the condition of any of the nee-
dle bearings or sleeve, replace the sleeve, and needle
bearings as a set.
