not all suffered, most of the 2gs that suffered the crank walk problem had an ACT 2600, or similar clutch in them, all that load from the pressure plate didnt help the already weak thrust bearings the 7 bolt engines had. and the later half of the 1g cars also could suffer from that issue because of the use of the 7 bolt bottom ends
