I just pulled mine this weekend at 66k...almost flawless.
I just had mine pulled last week at 74,000 miles.

- no funny noises
- blackstone oil reports where excellent

I only had them pulled because of Internet paranoia and I was going on a 2,000 mile road trip.

I'm glad I had them pulled because... They had copper showing
I would send pictures of your bearings back to Blackstone for their feedback, since your reports were all good. I'm sure many here would be interested in what they have to say.
