I think LN had to draw the line somewhere-they and Flat 6 Innovations came up with an aftermarket repair for and OEM design prone to failure. Not all OEM IMSBs fail, many go well over 100,000 miles without issue. But even though the LN units are ceramic and open, they still rely on splash lubrication and nothing lasts forever.
This thread got me thinking about my own IMSB replacement. I went back to my files and saw that I discussed this with my indie back in 2014. The single row pro was about $400 more and I went with it.
CBonilla, while it sucks to find out that you got a single row replacement, I think it is still way better than OEM. Thanks for bringing this up for those who may be contemplating an IMSB replacement.
