Default Rod bearing noise

Would the rod bearing problem be costly to fix? I wouldn't mind putting another grand in it or so to get it back into great running shape.

i think you could fix the rod bearing and get news ones for all of the rods for a grand including the labor and whatever else may need to be done

Cool. What all would I need to buy to fix it and where should I buy it?

id personally take it to a machine shop if you dont know what youre doin or have all the tools. They will point you in the right direction on what type of bearings to get and any work needed to be done, plus they can inspect the motor for any other flaws.
