I just purchased a RAD bearing carrier, but it seems like it requires less o-rings than the stock unit.
Stock Unit:

Aftermarket:

Notice that there isn't a groove for an o-ring on the thick part of the carrier, on the aftermarket.
Also does anyone know what size the outer o-ring is?

Thanks for the help, i just don't want to destroy a new carrier.

aftermarket ones don't need o-rings.

What outer oring are you talking about? on the right side that the brake stay slips on? you don't need to use that oring unless you really want to.

Yea that is the one i was talking about. I just didn't want to take any chances. Things get expensive to replace. Thanks for the help.

Check out www.servicehonda.com if you need to know the sizes of anything like that. I built my project from just the frame, so Service Honda came in REALLY handy.

I checked service honda, and actually had already ordered some, but then i noticed that there were no grooves for the rings. So i guess i didn't really need them. But service honda is great.:)
