BEARING - ENGINE THRUST (Mitsubishi MB1AL272010STD)

A worn engine thrust bearing can allow excessive crankshaft end play, risking contact between rotating and stationary components. This aftermarket replacement part references Mitsubishi as the OE maker and cross-references part number MB1AL272010STD. The bearing type controls axial movement of the crankshaft within the engine block. A plain mechanical function is to maintain proper clearance between the crankshaft thrust face and the bearing surface. A concrete generic failure consequence is that insufficient thrust control can lead to premature wear of the crankshaft or connecting rods. Keeping the thrust bearing in sound condition helps prevent metal-to-metal contact under load. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
