They depend on perfect alignment to have any benefit. If things don't line up within .0005 of perfect, they are a waste and could cause more problems. Think of it as though you replaced your rod bearings with needle bearings instead of sleeve bearings. Does one end of the needles have the same clearance and pressure as the other end??? Instead of riding on a bearing surface of about 3/4" you might be riding on a bearing surface of .030". What makes you feel safer?
