On a scale of 1 - 10:
10= Just as bad as the early KJs that were recalled.
1= You're pushing 200,000 miles with the stock LBJs with no issues.

Let the rating and debating begin

They will wearout,they all do no matter the brand or even if you can grease them or not.Generally sealed units last from 50k-150k before needing to be replaced.

I know there are a few KK on here with 100K plus with out an issue. I'll even go as far as to say I have yet to hear about either a bad UBJ or LBJ.
