Thanks Bigtex......I guess I'll have to ask for a credit-line increase on my Grand Union and Blockbuster cards to pay for all of this......

 

The Boxer is a classic, and a stable value as well.

They are expensive to feed.........it helps to keep the service coupons current.

Doing 'catch up' on deferred ones is not fun, or inexpensive. Months and mileage wait for no man!

I'm curious, how many of these bearings would you say on average fail? Is it really because of the bearing that you take the engine out, or is it more of a "time for a major so we might as well" situation?

I ask b/c there is a huge discussion on the Nick Forza 4.0L thread about the drive bearings and the proposed replacements being roller bearings instead of ball bearings.
