    Totally agree Mark. Once you have that front swivel assy in bits the last thing you want to do is skimp on a secondhand bearing that craps out 10,000klm later and you have to tear it all down again. I think I used a Terrain tamer kit and it was complete and quality seemed fine. I think @MudRunnerTD has a recommendation in his swivel hub rebuild thread from memory. Biggest recommendation is find the thread and follow it, its totally complete as a process and bullet proof.
