WD connecting rod offset

Andy Airgood · Sep 24, 2019

Can anyone tell me what the correct offset should be for the pin bushing placement on the connecting rod for each piston on my WD?

Assemble all four rods on all four pistons and leave the pinch bolts loose. Lay them all out on the table, in order, with the numbers on the rods facing up. Squeeze rods #1 and #2 together and #3 and #4 together. Make the piston pin flush to the piston sides in-between #1 and #2 and #3 and #4. Tighten pinch bolts and recheck pin positioning. This is so simple and a picture is so much easier to understand than writing it down.

The picture in the service manual and that usually comes in a rebuild kit helps a bunch. Even the lowly I&T manual has the procedure in it.
