1999 with double row ims vs single row

[flaps10]

1% was reported as part of the settlement with car owners years ago. Yet people show up here every week with bearing failure (mine is dual row and failed).

It's not 1% any more.

Correct..........

I'm thinking the ims bearing should be a routine replacement at xxx miles
like a timing belt .
I'm sure after a certain amount of miles anything can fail . Bearings fail & the imsb was obviously not well thought out as far as lubrication goes .
