What is involved in changing rod bearings? How difficult is it? Any special tools needed??

I'm about to do it in a DET and am a little intimidated.

Can someone let me know the details involved??

Thanks

I'm in the process of doing mine so it's still fresh. You'll need: a engine stand, 10-12-14mm sockets, torque wrench, plastiguage, and I think that's it. You have to take apart the entire lower and upper oil pans. While your in there, you'll want to check the crank bearings. My rod bearings were actually ok, but my crank bearings were shitty. PM me your email and I can send you some pics. I have about 30 of just the bottem end!
