That sounds like salemanship, if they were that bad and failed that much they would be out of business. They have 50 motors with failed LN bearings? I don't even think there have been 50 failures worldwide, let alone just 50 at this vendor.

I would be interested to see the article.

If you really want to resolve it once and for all, LN IMS Solution. That said, I am on just the regular dual row LN ceramic retrofit for the last 40,000 miles/5 years and it has been working out.

I though RND engines came with their own version of the roller bearing anyway and not the LN ceramic retrofit? So if the EPS guy says cylindrical roller bearings are the best, you might have one already

Roller Bearing IMS Retrofit Kit – RND Engines

There is no way that 50 of these have failed in the last few years since RND came out.
