It's very interesting that they only use a 180 degree thrust bearing. Also that you can buy a 360, but is the #3 main cap even machined for that? Also if it's not used for a thrust bearing there's likely no alignment dowels and thus the possibility of the cap walking would increase. I'd say it'd likely be rare but technically possible.
I guess not being able to find the answer I'll try to get technical help from the vendor I decide to buy the rotating assembly from. I'd assume that they'd have the answers.
