I do plan to do the RB's at the next change, or should I try pushing it a little longer?

Just wanted to make sure this wasn't a car you drove 5 minutes to the train station every day, as that would cause the acid build-up (high TAN).

Why are you changing the rod bearings? Preventative maintenance?
Yes, just to buy a peace of mind. What's your take on that?
