Question: how are connecting rods attached to the crankshaft?
Answer: The wrist pin fixes the piston to the connecting rod, which is assembled on the crankshaft in two split-and-bolted halves. The crankshaft main bearings revolve around their own axis. ... The connecting rod goes on to the crankpin, and the connecting-rod cap is slid into place. Connecting-rod cap bolts are then installed.
