Quite a few stories of them spinning rod bearings. Usually on machines that have been sunk in the mud and took in water.

Bit of an over generalization there....that is true of any motor sunk or having water in it.

Anyways, the 05's had some issue but there are fixes for them.

Tie-rod issue
Bus connector(grounding point) issues
Front cylinder needle is not correct.

Stuff like that.They are not prone to spinning bearings more than any other motor.
