Wakataka,
Thanks for the warning. That's the first time I've heard of that happening to the Main Ball Bearing. I have heard of the Wrist Pin Needle Bearing Cage breaking, allowing all those little needles to fall out of place and crunch time. I had a 377 and changed those bearings to the uncaged type. Now I have a newer 447.
