Rod bearing question?

I removed 1 rod without splitting the case.
Does this mean I have to replace the rod bearing no matter what. Even though it looks fine?
Or could I reuse the old one.

Thanks,

Leakproof.

Bearing don't have to be replaced, factory rod bolts and nut need to be replaced as they are stretch bolts and are only intended to be used once.

Thanks 4sd911,
Thats kind of what I thought I just wanted to confirm it and run it by you guys.
Reason being I thought my machinist said I had to replace it today when I met with him. I probably mis understood him.

Thanks,

Leakproof.

Just make sure the two parts go back in the same way with the numbers on the same side and pointing in same direction.
