Saw your other post where you were diagnosing the hammering sound, and where you discovered it was rod bearings. Did you destroy or damage the crank? Did a you spin a rod bearing? Hopefully you caught it in time. Even though you said you have a motor with 75k on it. Taking out a crank sucks.

Will 3.0 rod bearing work in 3.2

the crank journals need to be perfectly smooth - if you rub across them with your fingernail and feel any kind of roughness, its toast.

likewise, the rod journal needs to be smooth, with no indications of the bearing spinning in the rod.

if the bearing spun in the rod, you will need to replace that rod. if the bearing spun in the rod, there is a 99% chance that the crank will need to be replaced or reground.
