Very astute Beav,
My only personal experience was 3 bearings 3K apart after i bought at 40K, until I demanded they replace the knuckle. The super tech at the dealer agreed after his special attention to the last 2 that this was the best shot. Then no prob for 30+K now. There are a lot of factors at work here. I seem to remember an upgraded bearing from SOA. As they say, this isn't brain surgery. Trannys are.... (for the owner, Hi Aredub..) B.
