A connecting rod assembly connects a piston to a crankshaft in an internal combustion engine. The connecting rod assembly includes a connecting rod having a yoke at an end thereof. The yoke includes a semi-circular bearing portion and a pair of shoulders. The yoke further includes at least two bolt holes associated with and opening at each shoulder. A cap is attached with the yoke, and includes a semi-circular bearing portion and a pair of shoulders. The cap further includes at least two bolt holes associated with each shoulder. Each bolt hole opens at a respective shoulder and is substantially coaxially aligned with a respective bolt hole in the yoke to define a mating pair of bolt holes. A plurality of bolts are each disposed in a respective mating pair of bolt holes and attach the cap with the yoke. Each bolt has a head with a non-circular cross section which abuts a head of an adjacent bolt and prevents unlimited rotation therebetween.
