LN bearing failure

[Gelbster]

This Porscheland guy also used at least two different identities on Rennlist to try to conceal his 'activities'. He was also abusive, repeatedly.Just as he is in this thread.
There was a very long and patient attempt to get technical test data from him regarding the inherent weaknesses of the cylindrical roller(as opposed to deep groove ball) bearing IMSB he uses . He had no data,no technical rebuttal.Just abusive responses to technical questions.
That was a pity because we diy owners would love to have a better/cheaper IMSB solution.
Unless the technical objections against using a cylindrical roller bearing in this application are overcome it remains an unsatisfactory product compared to a plain bearing or a deep groove ball bearing(1, 1-1/2 or 2 row).
The inherent deficiencies of the cylindrical roller bearing as an IMSB have been discussed many,many times. Nobody (so far) has offered a way of overcoming these problems.
As forum members we have an unwritten obligation to call out defective products and abusive posts.Please consider this to be one such call.
I hope the Moderator intervenes.

Great you have mentioned this, are you talking about the transmission guy from Ga? We have read this tread, and had a great laugh. The poor guy has been accused of being us and posting on rennlist after being banned, lol. He had no clue what everyone was talking about. He has a point about the roller bearings. But it's not us, you can google his username and details he provided in his post, and you will see this is a legitimate person who works on transmissions in Ga. From what i can remember it's Ga Precision Gear. Feel free to give him a call to confirm! He has no clue about us or previous treads, so he didn't understand everyone's comments in that tread. He purchased a roller bearing from Vertex, our competition, they sell the same roller bearings, just kit is different. He posted that he works with transmissions every day, and he knows that if everyone has used roller type bearing, none of them would break. He got smothered by all your comments, and gave up in the end. There's no way to win with all of you. He knows what I know, that's the bottom line- roller bearings are better than ball.
