Dodge Durango Crankshaft
Dodge Durango Crankshafts convert the pistons' up and down movement into the spinning force which turns the transmission gears and wheels. Thus, a Crankshaft is a vital powertrain part. This Crankshaft rotates within the block, utilizing precision journals that are offset, allowing connecting rods to swing in circular paths that efficiently convert energy. The Crankshaft of the Dodge Durango has a thick oil film to prevent metal-to-metal contact as it carries heavy loads. Dodge's lower output engines get a cast iron version of the Crankshaft, with the Durango's performance ones receiving a forged steel version that has less weight, will not flex under the greater stress of higher horsepower, and may not fail as early on fatigue life. The basic geometry of the two versions is essentially the same, with a difference in the material and the strength of the material. When serviced routinely with an oil and filter change, a Dodge unit should last as long as the vehicle. However, a dirty unit or one with low lubrication will score the journals, cause contact between metals, create an engine knock, and eventually lead to an expensive replacement. If you drive a Durango and feel a strange vibration, do not ignore it. This vibration often indicates a Crankshaft issue before it becomes catastrophic.

Dodge Durango Crankshaft Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How can the crankshaft be removed from the engine after it has been taken out on Dodge Durango?A:The crankshaft in most cases can only be removed from an engine when the engine is detached from a car and additional parts that include the flywheel, crankshaft pulley, timing chain, oil pan, oil pump, oil filter, and piston/connecting rod have been removed. To take the crankshaft endplay, place a dial gauge on the crankshaft in line with the centreline of the cylinder block. With the crankshaft turned to the rear tighten the hold down, turn the crankshaft to the extent of movement SET indicator dial and then turn the crankshaft to the front to get the READING which should be between 0.003 to 0.010 inch. Feeler gauges can be used in case one doesn't have the dial indicator in checking for clearance. Slacken off the main bearing cap bolts while they can still be undone by hand and then use a soft-faced hammer to tap the assembly up and thereby lift it off the block in this position without bending the bearing inserts. Withdraw the crankshaft slowly, if at all possible, with help and replace the main bearing cap assembly with the arrow aimed forwards. For installation you must make sure the engine block and the crankshaft must be cleaned and checked. The main bearing cap assembly and original bearing inserts should be taken off and the surfaces cleaned. Install new upper main bearing inserts into the block; oil holes must conform and install lower inserts to cap. Measuring the oil clearance of the main bearing with the help of Plastigage and comparing it with standard values if necessary. If clearance is not correct then make sure that the bearing is clean and then if required decide between the size of the bearing to be used. After cleaning Plastigage residue, apply a coat of grease on the bearing areas and the thrust faces and replace the crank shaft and the bearing caps if necessary and seal them where necessary. Secure the bolts to the recommended torque, redial crankshaft end play, and crank shaft should rotate easily with least resistance. Last but not the least the installation of the new rear main oil seal.
