So I have called EVERY hardware store within reasonable distance to my apartment and I am not able to find anywhere that stocks bearings fit for a
buggy. Is there a website that anyone can recommend for quick shipping and cheap prices on bearings? I am not paying $10 a pop for PL bearings...Demoknight - 27-5-2014 at 05:10 PM
Holy crap I just found perfect matches at Bearingdepot.com
You just have to look under the ATV bearings section, they have 20x47mm and 12x32mm perfect sizes and prices. Full set for a Comp XR+ right at $30.PHREERIDER - 27-5-2014 at 05:38 PM
If Bearingdepot can't outfit you, there's also VXB.com (Cheap plug 'cause they helped me out finding bearings for a GI board.)lunchbox - 27-5-2014 at 10:30 PM
Man, I must be some kind of moron but I'm having a really tough time finding the bearing I want.
Looking for bearings just like demoknight for a PL Comp XR+. Can someone please recommend a good quality bearing that's going to last and that is
durable. I ride in a very fine dusty area and my bearings all seem to make noise after only a few sessions.
Could you also provide the part # or product # so I can go to either of those sites and just pull it up.
Thanks. rtz - 27-5-2014 at 11:01 PM
Take a close look at your bearings and see if they say "6204" on them. If they do; this is a great price on the best bearing I've been able to find:
Perfect. Thanks rtz. This was the exact information I needed!BeamerBob - 28-5-2014 at 08:20 AM
Wow, I thought it was easy when I ordered some bearings about 14 months ago. I ordered from a vendor on ebay and got 3 sleeves of 10 bearings each
for $45. I've only had to redo 2 of my Landsegler wheels, and I've ridden hundreds upon hundreds of miles at Ivanpah with them and they still roll
silently. The inside bearings on my rear wheels are almost constantly being sprayed with fine abrasive lakebed dust so the seals must be good enough
to keep the dust out. I don't see a need to pay $5 a bearing. Here is the link.
That size won't work for me unless I get new wheels. But that is really awesome price for bearings!BeamerBob - 28-5-2014 at 09:46 AM
I thought the XR+ buggies I've owned used the same bearings. In any case, maybe that supplier has the size you need?lunchbox - 28-5-2014 at 11:32 AM
Thanks BB!
Used your link to find the bearings I needed. Great Price!
I am always a little skeptical when it comes to low cost bearings but if it's working for you on Ivanpah, then I'm sure it'll work on my dirt field. BeamerBob - 28-5-2014 at 01:41 PM
