Jake and Charles have never said that the ceramic bearing would last 200k miles. What they have stressed is how much better it is than the original OEM bearing/lube design. That is still what Jake is saying. And they have recommended at least inspecting the ceramic bearing at intervals (up to 50k now from about 30k in the beginning IIRC based on longevity experience acquired over thousands of installations).
Given the labor involved (either your time in the case of the ceramic or Jake's in the case of the Solution), you can either pay twice for the labor at expected longevity intervals for the ceramic or once with the Solution if you run say 70k+ miles.
And if you don't want to drive the car or trailer it to Cleveland GA, then currently you have several remaining choices:
- Do nothing
- Pelican (OEM like) bearing kit
- LN Ceramic kit
- Wait for the Solution to be available from an installer near you
- Fashion your own kit
