The dual distributor I just rebuilt for a local had 181K km (112K miles) and his bearings in the secondary were locked which is why the belt snapped. Some owners have gone further and some less.

We, or at least those interested all knew what the bearing part numbers were, but if you Googled that part number a few years ago, you came up with nothing other than links to other forums searching for them as well. I have to give credit to those suppliers hunting down a source and there are a few of them in Europe. Schaeffler North America is clueless/tight lipped about them for some reason, but I'm not letting them off the hook.
