THE EPS ETERNAL FIX

IMS Eternal Fix retro fit kit installs in-car without removal or disassembly of the engine required. The Cylindrical Bearing with Thrust Control design has a load capacity 5 times greater than the inferior, failure prone, Ball Bearing solutions on the market!

Why Cylindrical is Best ?

Cylindrical Bearings have very high load bearing capacity, 5 times more than Ball Bearing. Cylindrical Bearings are used in, High Temp & Low Viscosity Lubrication such as Automatic Transmissions. They can carry extreme lateral pressure without wear to the friction surfaces. This is because the bearing friction surface is flat not concave.

BALL BEARINGS ARE NOT THE SOLUTION!

If you are reading this then you are aware of the ever so common IMS Bearing Failures. The design flaw with the factory IMS was the use of Ball Bearings in an extremely high load application. Once the Ball Bearings Fail it leads to a Catastrophic and Expensive engine rebuild.

  • A – Lubrication Cavity Feed : Located on the Retro Fit Base (D), this cavity is the lubrication entry point which provides the Cylindrical Bearings, Bearing Races and Friction Plate with a continuous supply of engine oil. While the engine is running, this area is saturated with engine oil as it is located in the bottom of the engine case, where much of the engine oil pools. Please also see the video at the bottom of the page.
  • B – Bearing Race: The Bearing Race is the raised hardened steel surface edge of the Bearing Chassis (located on either side of the Bearing). This surface provide a friction point with the Retro Fit Base (D) and the Friction Washer (C). This provides the patent-pending axial thrust control required when using Cylindrical Bearings.  
  • C – Friction Plate: The Friction Plate is a hardened steel washer that provides the inner friction point with the Bearing Race (B)
  • D – Retro Fit Base Friction Surface: This provides the outer friction point with the Bearing Race (B)
  • E – Retro Fit Base Friction Surface: The Cylindrical Bearings provide the radial load support for the IMS. Cylindrical Bearings have a load capacity of more than 5 times that of their Ball Bearing counterparts. Cylindrical Bearings are commonly used in very High Load, High Temperature, Low Viscosity Lubrication applications such as Automatic Transmissions.
