rod bolt ferrules
rod bolt ferrules How hard do you have to pull before the rod bolt ferrules come out? My motor has been apart before and the mechanic could have taken them out then but im not sure. I removed one rod bolt at a time and havent seen a single ferrule. I dont know what they look like, but nothing is pulling out.

Ferrels are in 99+ motors but you might have an early 99 so yours might not have them. If the stock bolt had a shoulder on it then you wouldn't have a ferrel. If it didn't then I'd be looking for the ferrels.

when I pulled the rod bolts out of my rods I saw no ferrules. Mine is a 2000 block....I think...anyway to know what year a block is from for sure? It has an open oil valley in the front of the motor like 99+ blocks should have...
I do remember the bolt getting loose and then tight again when I was backing out the bolts out of the rods... Maybe that was them....
anyways im putting arp bolts back in so I need to take the ferrules out right?
