Why didn't you guys wait for the new single row Solution thinga majig.
Clean oil sent to the IMS sounds pretty cool.

the idea that it has to be shipped to GA to be installed is a deal breaker for me.

Guys. I'm not sure what you are talking about?
The LN bearing comes with the center bolt installed on it.
So obviously the bearing needs to be installed with the bolt facing out.
This side of the bearing dose not have seal on it.

I purchased the LN ceramic imsb retro kit from Pelican. It is sealed on both sides.
The discussion came about due to a photo in the 101 boxster projects book. It had shown a picture of the open faced bearing, however one of the sales reps (Kenny) told me it was not correct.

The ceramic bearing kits Pelican sell have the sealed cermic bearing. As I was told.
