You didn't say what the problem was. If the engine has a rod knocking, you cannot fix that with a new rod bearing. Once a rod knocks, the impact loading on the connecting rod stretches the big end opening, and a new rod bearing won't fix it. The engine will still have a rod knock. It takes a resized connecting rod and a new bearing to fix that.
