"The harder you push them, the more they want to go". Kinda like my ex-wives.

Sorry to bring up yet again an oh-so-recurring topic, and my apologies if you've answered this before, but...original IMS bearing?

No, I replaced the original IMS bearing with LNE bearing (single row) at ~209,000 miles.

209K on a single row IMS bearing? Well done...you must be a gamblin' man!
Sounds like the one you had gave truly impressive service...ever worry the new one won't last as long as the old one would have???

I replaced the IMS bearing again at 243,000 miles... I had the transmission down so while I was in there I went ahead and replaced it. No issue with the LNE bearing just not quite as smooth as it was when new. BTW I replaced it with another LNE bearing.
