They say they life their bearings at 75000 miles or 6 years, since I don't use the car much, if after 6 years the bearings will have 20000 miles on them, will they still have to be changed?

Hi,
first of all you'll need to make shure that the installation is 100% correct. If you don't have the tools, knowledge or know how i would say change your motor oil yearly with a high qualitiy oil, change and examine the filter and leave the bearing alone.
Additionally - if you have a double row bearing engine. The bearings of these engines don't fail that much as single row bearings. And there are a lot of others causes why theses engines can fail. So don't go crazy on thinking abount the bearing - that's my personal opinion.
Well, 6 years or 75k miles means 6 years or 75k miles. Perhaps Jake can answer this question. Also Jake should give you a recommendation which of his systems match best for your car.
