Diff bearings...

[Trip..]

I smoked the rear diff in the XB a few months ago. So aside from the crappy stock replacement chinese bearings, what are you guys using?


I did a search through Fast Eddy for 19x10x5, but came up with nothing. I don't want to put the same crappy bearings back in the new diff housing because I know they'll fail too, so what are you guys using?


I see Boca has them from about 7 bux per bearing for the cheap ones all the way up to 12, but that's pretty expensive when you need 10 of them.


7075, what sized bearings are you using in your diff housings?

22 X 10 X 6, Same size I use for the front and rear axles. Never had a problem with them but if you need replacements they are $5 each

Thanks Ol' fart.

I dug through my pitbox and found a tube of brand new Fast Eddy ceramic bearings that I must have ordered last year. I love it when I find new stuff buried out of sight.
