CR4624SM is standard (STD) size - intended for engines with unmachined, within-spec crankshaft rod journals; verify journal diameter prior to purchase
Also available in 0.25mm, 0.50mm, and 0.75mm undersizes for reground crankshafts
Does not fit Hyundai/Kia 2.4L GDI engines (G4KJ/G4KG codes) - different journal dimensions apply

Product Description

The King CR4624SM SM-Series connecting rod bearing set is engineered for the Hyundai and Kia Theta/Theta II 2.0L-2.4L four-cylinder engines (G4KC, G4KD, G4KE), covering a wide range of models including the Sonata, Santa Fe, Tucson, Optima, Sportage, and Sorento. The SM-Series uses King's strongest aluminum-based bi-metal construction - a steel backing bonded with a Manganese and Chromium-enhanced aluminum alloy - delivering superior load capacity and wear resistance over standard OE bearings while remaining fully lead-free.

This standard-size set is a direct OE replacement (ref. 23060-25100) intended for engines with journals within factory specification. It suits routine engine rebuilds, high-mileage preventative maintenance, and performance builds on these widely used Theta platform engines. Confirm your engine code and crankshaft journal diameter before ordering; undersized variants are available for reground crankshafts.
