Personally, I fail to see the logic in skimping on a part that can kill your engine in a heart beat. The Pelican bearing is basically the same as an OEM single row unit; so the moment your car hits the ground after installing it, you have exactly the same probability of failure that you had before you took it apart. Just because it is new, the odds have not really changed as many single row IMS failures occur when the car has low miles on it. If you are paying someone to install it, most of your expense is going to be labor, not parts, regardless of who's bearing you install, so why go cheap on the parts?
