Default Car and parts pics

Right after I bought my car I took it in to RUF for L&N IMS, RMS, 997 WP and only got a chance to post one photo. So I just got it back and promised more pics. Here is my Meridian Metallic 2001 C4 and the old parts that came out of it. I was pumped that it had the double row IMS bearing.

@Porsche87 - "I was pumped that it had the double row IMS bearing."

Welcome and congrats on a beautiful car! Can you explain this comment please?

Thanks everyone for the comments. sovarystout it looks like you had just about the same thing done, glad to see that and its working out. Don't want to turn this into an IMS thread but to answer your question Bill, according to the L&N Engineering website, they have experienced zero failures with the dual row bearing retrofit. They have had only a few with the single row bearing.

Starting to see failures of LNE bearings within 3 years? Hmmm.
