Both of our new 08 7010s had the same problem. The first combine was at around 15 hours all the bearings were replaced, the second combine had them all replaced at around 20 hours, the first combine had them again at about 30 hours (the shaft had been bent the first time & not noticed)
We`ve taken to greasing the support bearings every day & so far we`re just under 400 hrs on each unit with no further problems.
