• 2007-2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X JDM / Global (4B11T, 2.0L DOHC Turbo MIVEC, AWD)

Fitment Notes

• Fits Mitsubishi 4B11T turbocharged 2.0L engine only - does not fit the naturally aspirated 4B11 (non-turbo Lancer)
• Standard (STD) size - fits stock crankshaft diameter with no machining required
• Plain bearing halves (no dowel pin) - all halves are plain per King specification
• Engine features a semi-closed deck all-aluminum block with cast iron cylinder liners; bore x stroke: 86.0mm x 86.0mm, displacement: 1,998cc
• Designed as an upgrade over OEM bearings for high-boost and built 4B11T applications; pMaxKote coating addresses oil starvation risk common in high-output forced induction engines

Features

• pMaxKote nano-composite polymer coating applied as a factory fourth layer over pMax Black overlay - enhances wear, seizure, and cavitation resistance without adding wall thickness
• pMax Black tri-metal overlay is 24% harder than conventional race bearings via a proprietary nano-scale molecular hardening process
• 15-30% greater load capacity than traditional tri-metal bearings via SecureBond adhesion between overlay and intermediate layers
• Superior protection against oil starvation - critical for high-boost 4B11T builds under aggressive track and circuit use
• XP-series narrowed crank cheek profile eliminates fillet ride on high-radius aftermarket crankshafts
• Wall thickness tolerance held to ±0.0001" for shell-to-shell consistency and minimal selective fitting during assembly
• Increased crush height improves bearing-to-bore contact and reduces spin potential at high RPM

Product Description

The King CR4586XPC is a standard-size XPC-series connecting rod bearing set engineered specifically for the Mitsubishi 4B11T turbocharged 2.0L engine as found in the Lancer Evolution X (2008-2015) and Lancer Ralliart. The 4B11T replaced the legendary 4G63 in the Evo X platform, featuring an all-aluminum semi-closed deck block, MIVEC dual variable valve timing, and factory output ranging from 291 to 295 hp in USDM trim. The XPC designation means these bearings combine King's pMax Black tri-metal overlay - 24% harder than conventional race bearings - with a factory-applied pMaxKote nano-composite polymer coating that acts as a fourth protective layer. This coating is specifically engineered to enhance wear resistance and protect against seizure and cavitation during periods of marginal lubrication, making it well-suited for high-boost 4B11T builds that push beyond factory power levels.

At standard crankshaft diameter, no machining is required - these are a direct-fit upgrade for any 4B11T rod bearing replacement or engine rebuild. The pMaxKote coating does not alter the bearing's original precision wall thickness, and King's ±0.0001" wall thickness tolerance ensures exceptional consistency across all shells, minimizing selective fitting during assembly. Note that this bearing is exclusive to the 4B11T turbocharged variant; it is not compatible with the naturally aspirated 4B11 found in standard Lancer models.
