Thanks, Uncle Pete

I'm not aware of any "pre-packaged kits", but you can easily piece together your own 'kit'. That's what I did in building my TK (which I've since sold). Just put together a list of the sizes needed, and order (Avid RC is my preferred 'go-to').

Why? Just curious.
The bearings in the kit are just as good as anything else on the market so there's no point trying to "upgrade" them. But maybe you've worn a set out and need replacements?

Just thinking about an upgrade while doing the build.

Gotcha, SSD spec'd pretty good bearings in the kit so I wouldn't stress about upgrading them if I was you.
Honestly, bearings are about the last thing I ever upgrade in my crawlers since they're pretty low speed vehicles.
But if you really do want to upgrade, I highly recommend Boca Bearings, great customer service and without question the best bearings (and I'm an mechanical engineering tech so I spend a lot of time looking at and thinking about bearings) I've ever seen for rc. They wont have a prepackaged kit but you should be able make a list from the build manual.
