At minimum, when replacing the rods, you absolutely should plastigauge the assembly to make sure the rod+bearing+crank journal combination are within spec. Any time one of those variables are changed, you should verify that the assembly is still within spec.

In any event, rod bearings are so cheap, why would you go to the trouble of replacing the rods, and not just replace the bearings while you were at it?
