Something is obviously putting unnecessary stress on that bearing. I don’t know the schematics of bearings and what may cause it to fail prematurely, but i’d do some research on that and see what else could be the cause of its early failure twice.

I had both front bearings go out on my LR3 after going thru a puddle at a sand stone quary. When I replaced them they didn't seem to be sealed bearings. It isn't a difficult job but you need a torque wrench that goes to 250 nm if I remember correctly. There is a video on the Atlantic British website to show you how to do it.
