    Best Place to get 200X carrier bearings?

    Where's a good website with lots of replacement parts for 3 wheelers? Found a ton for 4 wheelers but am having a hard time finding carrier bearing other than on E-Bay. Are All Ball bearings better than stock Honda bearings?

    ebay, is best i think, i can find them all day long. you may be searching wrong, 86-87 had a bearing carrier, 83-85 has swingarm axle bearings, no carrier.

    I've had good luck with autoparts stores or regular bearing suppliers.

    If theres no nu,bers on them, you can just measure them or let the local bearing guys see them in person

    Is there a part number to use for rear axle bearings for an 84-85 200X? I would like to check out the bearing supply store option.

    The only bad thing about buying them individually from a supply store is you don't get new dust seals. If you buy the All Balls kit you get everything you need. Or you could get something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Honda...Q5fAccessories. $21 shipped is a good price.

    Long story, but I would only use E-Bay as a last resort. Are the one from Honda just as good as All Balls? The local guys here have really good prices on their parts. Also on bike bandit I could only find them sold individually. I'll look again for a kit.

    Also someone installed a zerk fitting on the carrier, somewhere I read that you want to drill a hole in the dust caps so the grease can go through the bearings. So if I drill a hole in the dust seal there is really no point in getting a new seal if I am just going to drill a hole in it. Just want to make sure drilling a hole in the dust cap is the proper way to do that mod?

    Would it make sense to just leave out the inner seal altogther if you are doing the zerk fitting mod to the swingarm? For instance on a Dana 44 that lubes the axle bearings with diff lube, there is no inner oil seal. Why bother if you want the inboard grease to flow freely to the bearings?
