Bearing replacement question for the differential gear group

This post is in reference to my last post about my clutch issue.


When I want to buy all new bearings for the differential gear group, do they come in a group for all shafts..... or do I have to buy every single one individually?


-- I am going to buy all new gear shafts, clutch bell and bearings as well.---

When you buy bearings, the ABEC rating is very important. The higher the number, more precise, durable and higher speed. Generic bearings has no markings, stay away from them they are the most common type and they will slow down your rig. Manufacturers use them to cut down expenses. Like Phill said get them on your local bearing shop and get the highest quality (number) you can afford.

If you upgraded to the MT or 7075 gear plate they take larger bearings and the 7075 plate takes an additional bearing. If you have the money, upgrading the plate itself is also a good idea.

What method or tools does everyone use to replace these small bearings in the 7075rc gear plate?
