A lot of people will just take off the front knuckle and send it to Dave Lenzi to replace the bearings and install a grease zerk if wanted.
Jim K at Applied has the bearings, as you know. You can also have Jim B at the Co-op put you a care package together for the rear or front bearings.
I believe Cinabar has the timken bearings.

The rear are somewhat easier, sorta like a trailer.

If it was me I would only use the USA made bearings. The Chinese bearings are about half the cost, but I've read that are prone to failure.

Good luck,
Scott
