Is this solution any good? It´s easy enough to knock out some spacers.
Do they use some kind of special 6402 bearing in this kit?

Pelican
I don't think so. You are replacing the double row bearing, which according to Porsche data given in a recent law suit, has a failure rate of less than 1%, to a single row which has a failure rate of 8+ percent. Just get the LN dual row replacement. Expensive, but proven.
