Cheapest crank bearings?

[drawkward]

Where do you guys shop for your engine internals? I'm having a hard time finding reasonable deals on bearings, seals, and cranks.

You can find soem deals on eBay at times. I got my ceramics ther eat a decent price. Otherwise, you can seach for 6204 bearings on google and see what comes up (if you're dealing with a yamaha/minarelli). Try to get a Taiwan or Japanese bearing.

Thanks for the link, Brent. Got some on the way.

I don't believe I would skimp on crank bearings. I'd buy the best on the market, just because they are so critical and hard to change out.

I linked to SKF and VXB because they're good quality. Most folks couldn't afford to buy the best. I've seen 6204 ceramics at near $200 per bearing.

Wow, okay I admit $200 a piece is a little extreme for a normal street Scooter. Maybe if your were building and out and out race motor with nitrous!

For bearings and seals I go to my local bearing distributors who happen to be Eastern Bearing and Kaman Industrial. In general I find the quality is better and the prices cheaper than what I can get on line.
