I am guessing a rod did that?? who did the overhaul?? the reason I asked, is because I just had 3 - 6.2 completely overhauled.. holy crap.. maybe I should convert all to cummins

I don't know who overhauled it....But they did not either check bearing clearance or passed up on the tork spec on the rod cap..Bummer I hope you can get your money back..Crappy job right there!!

Wasn't necessarily the builder, sometimes parts fail. Could have been pushed a little too hard in the mountains while towing as well.

It is all those yellow things that caused the problem. ;-)

Pretty clean break on the rod. That block is toast. :-(
