Default Need help with Steel Axle tube bearing size

Hi. I bought a clod steel axle tube from thecrawlerstore couple of years ago and I lost couple of those flanged bearings that goes on top and bottom of the tube. I've contacted tcs already and they don't even know what size it is. Does anyone know the size? and where can I buy them?

thanks.

What brand of axle tubes? JPS axles, or Integy axles? I know what bearing your mean, but I don't know the size right off hand. For the C-hub, correct?

Sorry. I meant the bearings for the c-hub. The ones that go on top and bottom

I don't recall what brand it was (for sure not integy) because the axles and all the parts came in a plastic bag w/no labels on it. That's why I always thought it was like the crawlerstore's brand.

If anyone knows the size of this bearing I would really appreciate it.

I'm not to firmilar with those axles. I've had JPS and Integy tubes, and to be honest, Integy tubes aren't junk. They actually look like a qaulity part.

If all else fails, measure the outer diameter of the bore that bearing is supposed to press into, with a caliper. Then measure the depth. Finally, measure the outside diameter of the stub shaft or CVD, and that will be your bearing's inner race diameter. It's just a matter of going shopping then. Bearings can be found at a variety of places. Booca would be a good bet because they usually have a good selection online, even of flanged bearings, but there are many sources. If you don't have a caliper to measure with, beg, borrow, or steal one. (well don't steal one)
