A two piece connecting rod assembly for a axial cylinder, internal combustion engine with each rod half having a bearing sleeve at each end for pivotal engagement with the universal joint turnion. The two rods are connected to each other at their centers and spaced apart concentric relations through a pair of raised bosses with mating surfaces and a bolt for retention of the two rod halves as a unified structure.
