^^ Thanks for posting that. Clearly safe to say coated 702/703 bearings will not last any longer than a new OEM bearing. The coating sure didn't last long.

I'm looking forward to seeing more and more examples being pulled. I have had the extra clearance/coated VAC bearing in mine for about 20,000 miles. It'll still be a little while before I pull them out to check their condition and share my findings. Aiming to do it around the 50,000 mile mark, which will not be too long considering how many miles I put on the car every year.
