Did you examine the bearing in Pedro's kit ? It is just a generic average grade alternator bearing. Not saying that is bad, it just isn't anything better than LN.But it is definitely cheaper.

You may be right on all accounts. However, if you believe Pedro, and I do, his thought on the subject is " it's not the bearing, it's the lubrication" that matters.

My dentist says too much popcorn is bad for my teeth, so that'll be it for me.
