Trex 700 main bearings

[Si_B]

Anyone got a link to some replacement mainshaft bearings for the Trex 700. Seen the ceramic ones on Fast Lads, but not sure it they are worth the extra. Also, if you have replaced them, is it a case of heating them in the oven then tapping out, or just pressing them out ??.

Get on rcbearings.com and type in the bearing code from the manual

No need for ceramic imo.

I just tapped them out and push fitted the replacements. That was in August after a crash, not needed to change them since.

Why not order some engine bearings as there peanuts and are as good as the omi's IMO

Engine bearings ??, you know something I dont ??

Thanks for the link, will order now.

Is there not a UK based source ??. Seems mad to have two bearings shipped half way across the world. Notice those bearings have rubber seals, I assume that's not causing any issues ??.

Not looking to start a debate here but looking through that site they seem to be just cheap Chinese bearings, or am i missing something?
