I've heard nothing but good things about BocaBearings.com

Say, what's with all the new threads? :mdr:

Rebuilding a truck without our permission!? :whip: :no:

yea sorta. my rustys been outta commision for quite a while and i just purchased one of linc's lst's. so i know its not gonna be driven for a long time since ill be busy with the lst.
i hate having rc's sitting around broken, cus when i do decide that i wanna run it, and then find out...oh yea. i needed to replace those broken parts or never got around to fix it.
this way, once i do feel like running one of my other rc's, its ready to rock!

I get them from avid, $1 each, and cheap fast shipping.

redshift 06.10.2009 11:15 PM

Yeah www.bocabearings.com has 10 packs for 8.99, fast shipping too. I've dealt with them twice, your first order they throw in a mousepad with a conversion chart, pretty cool... I will order from them in the future for sure!

I feel ya blue, my Evader EXT and EMaxx hasn't been run in nearly 4 months due to lack of money to purchase the new couple dollar parts.

Finally, sold a few things, so I bought my new parts I need for my Evader (Alu Spur, Spring Pins) and for my EMaxx, I just need new diffs, and I'm ready to rock.

Should have a few packages coming each day.

Avid and ebay

jhautz 06.10.2009 11:27 PM

avid has never let me down. Good and inexpensive.

blueb8llz 06.10.2009 11:31 PM

sounds like avid is the choice of for most. but boca is much cheaper. they got the 10 packs for 8.99 plus they do free shipping as long as its over 12 dollars. or they got 99 cents just like avid.
can you guys verify that these are the right bearings for the size i need.
i need 5x11x4 traxxas

How about these?
