The Lincoln Town Car Rod Bearing allows the crankshaft to spin within the Lincoln sedan, reducing friction and protecting the smooth delivery of power. Inside the 4.6-liter V8, the Rod Bearing is a plain split insert that rides on a pressurized oil film that separates the steel journals from the connecting rods. Cars built in the early years applied bi-metal aluminum-silicone versions that resisted seizure. Later, higher output editions received tri-metal bearings with a copper base and lead-tin-copper overlay. This gives them better strength, fatigue resistance, and dirt embedability. Getting regular oil changes in a Lincoln keeps the film on the Rod Bearing intact and keeps the Town Car drivetrain reliable. An appropriate crush in the saddle and an oil clearance of roughly 0.001 to 0.0035 inch keeps the insert located and the oil circulating. The clearance is checked using Plastigage or a micrometer and bore gauge. If the journal is worn, it can be ground undersize and fitted with an undersize Rod Bearing to eliminate knock. A high-quality Rod Bearing that is fitted to specification supports the heavy crank so that the Lincoln can be quiet and smooth, which is something Town Car drivers appreciate on long trips. Adequate lubrication is what helps each Town Car perform strongly.
