Aside from Canadian based companies (because there's some stupid ball bearing trade laws), what are some good sources of aftermarket drivetrain bearings in the US? Should I go with OEM?

Thanks in advance
 

i run all balls dont know where they are made but seem to be a good bearing

that is a liitle to much for a bearing,get mine here from Royal at around $7 to $8.And can get 10 packs for about $3.00 a piece for basic bearing.I use NTN Blue seal for drive line and upper idlers,and cheaper one for the wheels that are cheap enough to change every season.


Dude, that price is for 10 bearings. Not sure how paying $7 a piece is cheaper.
 
if for 10 bearings that is cheap,maybe to cheap..won't last long.The $7 ones are for Japanese made specially for snowmobiles.I would not use cheap ones in the drive train and upper idlers.Cheap for idlers only since they can be replaced easily and quick.I bough cheap bearing once to try out..lasted only a few rides and was making a lot of noise and seizing...
 
I can't use Royal because they won't ship bearings into the US for some trade law issue. I was just looking to see if there were any companies like Royal in the US that have driveline bearing package deals.

I appreciate all the info. Thanks
 
Just go to a parts store with the number and see what they can get you. Around here napa and car quest can almost get any bearing.
