Roller bearings are really cool and can last a good long time. The con rod would require a split cage with some form of (cracked at the parting flange) outer bearing shell. This could be done on the rod if one could get new, unmachined rods and they were modified to spec, similar to an outboard engine.
One thing to consider, the con rod rolller bearings may not hold up as well as the oem shell bearings to the diesel shock.
