The connecting rod is the intermediate member between the piston and the Crankshaft. Its primary function is to transmit the push and pull from the piston pin to the crank pin, thus converting the reciprocating motion of the piston into rotary motion of the crank. This thesis describes designing and Analysis of connecting rod. Currently, existing connecting rod is manufactured by using Forged steel. In this, drawing is drafted from the calculations. A parametric model of Connecting rod is modeled using SOLIDWORKS software and to that model, analysis is carried out by using ANSYS Workbench Software. Finite element analysis of connecting rod is done by considering the materials like forged steel (AISI 4140), SAE 1141 and aluminium 2014 alloy. The structural properties of the connecting rod made of different materials is studied by evaluating the parameters like Von misses Stress and strain, Deformation and weight reduction for two wheeler connecting. The structural analysis is done through ANSYS software. Aluminium Alloy has more factor of safety, reduce the weight, reduce the stress and stiffer than other material like Forged Steel.
