Changing big end bearings
Hi,
Does anyone know if you can change the big end bearings without taking the engine out? ie just by removing the sump.
My car is a MY95 STI RA
Big ends sound a little noisy on start up, so I hope I can catch them before they totally go.
Cheers,
Andy.

I don't think so. I wouldn't like to try it.
You'd never get enough ratchet movement to torque it up.
To be honest there may be other problems that need sorting so I wouldn't recommend it.
