Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Dropped my 02 S off to have the IMS retrofit done this week. Going from single row to double row. Get that off my mind finally.

POST 2Original post

Nice, that will be one less thing to worry about once it is done. Are you going to have any additional work done while you have the gearbox off? I would recommend having the clutch looked at, and if you were thinking of a LSD, this would be a good time to do that too. Give me a call if you are on the hunt for anything.

POST 3Original post

Tmass, You are converting from single to double row? Do you mean the "single Row Pro " from LN? Gen 2 Single Row Pro IMS Retrofit In the cutaway photo you'll notice that it is not the same as a conventional double row bearing. It has fewer balls and the races are staggered because of the space limitation. Still way better than the OEM single row.
