Eagle Forged 4340 Steel H-Beam Connecting Rods: Fits most Hemi Models
Eagle Forged 4340 Steel H-Beam Connecting Rods
Chrysler / Dodge / Jeep / Ram 5.7L Hemi, 6.1L SRT8, 6.4L 392, 6.2L Hellcat & Trackhawk
S0053
Overview:
The Eagle Forged 4340 Steel H-Beam Connecting Rods are precision-engineered components designed to enhance the strength and reliability of your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or Ram engine. Specifically built for the 5.7L Hemi, 6.1L SRT8, 6.4L 392, and 6.2L Hellcat & Trackhawk powerplants, these rods provide superior durability under high-stress conditions. Ideal for performance enthusiasts and professional builders alike, they offer a robust upgrade over factory rods to support increased horsepower and torque demands.
Manufactured from premium forged 4340 steel, these connecting rods deliver exceptional fatigue resistance and toughness, making them suitable for street, strip, and track applications. Their H-beam design optimizes strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring reliable operation without unnecessary mass.
Key Features:
Engineered for high-performance applications, these connecting rods incorporate advanced features to maximize durability and fitment precision:
- 6.243-inch center-to-center length for exact OEM fitment
- H-beam design for superior strength and reduced weight
- Forged from high-grade 4340 steel for enhanced toughness
- Floating wrist pin style with 0.945-inch end bore diameter
- Big end bore diameter of 2.2520 inches with 0.932-inch width
- Cap screw retention using ARP 2000 alloy bolts with 220,000 psi tensile strength
- 12-point bolt head style for secure fastening and easy installation
- Shot-peened finish and magnafluxed for crack detection and durability assurance
- Weight-matched sets (~640 grams per rod) for balanced engine operation
- Clearance designed for standard stroke; not clearanced for stroker kits
Construction & Design:
These connecting rods are crafted from forged 4340 chromoly steel, a material renowned for its high tensile strength and fatigue resistance. The H-beam configuration enhances rigidity while minimizing weight, which helps reduce rotating mass and improve engine responsiveness. Each rod undergoes shot peening to increase surface hardness and fatigue life, while magnaflux inspection ensures structural integrity by detecting any microscopic cracks before assembly.
The rods feature precision-machined big and small end bores to maintain tight tolerances and optimal bearing fitment. ARP 2000 alloy cap screws provide exceptional clamping force and reliability under extreme loads, ensuring the rods remain securely fastened during high-RPM operation.
Installation & Fitment:
Designed as a direct replacement for factory rods, these Eagle connecting rods fit Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram engines equipped with the 5.7L Hemi, 6.1L SRT8, 6.4L 392, and 6.2L Hellcat & Trackhawk powerplants without modification. Installation requires standard engine assembly procedures, and it is recommended to use Clevite CB1808A or King CR8032SM rod bearings for optimal performance and longevity.
Each rod is sold individually, allowing for custom engine builds and selective replacement. Proper balancing and torque specifications should be followed during installation to ensure engine reliability and performance.
What's Included:
- One Eagle Forged 4340 Steel H-Beam Connecting Rod
- ARP 2000 alloy cap screws pre-installed
- Shot-peened and magnafluxed rod ready for assembly
Ideal For:
These connecting rods are perfect for enthusiasts and professional engine builders seeking a durable, high-strength upgrade for Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram Hemi engines. Whether building a naturally aspirated powerhouse or a forced induction monster, these rods provide the reliability needed for street performance, drag racing, road racing, or off-road applications. They are especially suited for engines running increased boost, higher RPMs, or elevated cylinder pressures where OEM rods may fall short.
