The dual row cars are best protected by the IMS Guardian as a lower cost, easier to install product.
The single row 01-05 MY engines are where the IMSS is best applied.

I went ahead and retro fitted mine as it is a pretty nice 2000 S. Hope the LN dual row hybrid will still be available well into the future when it is time for a replacement.
I imagine the dual row hybrid retro fit would be fairly robust solution as it stands and that there would little gain in providing an improved dual row product; the bearing capacity would be inherently higher as compared to the single row hybrid bearing.
Perhaps the new product is a double row for the single rows or a return the plain bearing sleeve as found on the "other end" and older engine types?
