I recently found some connecting rods for an engine that is out of production, and finding spares is very difficult. The rods are a cast aluminum alloy, without bearing inserts. The rods are OK, except the big end bearing surfaces are scored badly.
Is it possible to rebuild these rods, by machining the big ends and inserting new bearings? Is this ever practiced?
Thanke in advance for any help.
