NO, tell them that uwant Pivot Works. Thats all i run in mine, and never have any problems, the updated and now use better bearings. Ide go with them.

All i did to mine is just got some wire wraped around the little clip that holds the caliper and everything tight. So i spent 120 on ebay and got a new one. Look On ebay if you want a new one or go to pivot works and get a rebuild kit if u don't want a new one. EIther way don't pay that price.

You can get a new dbl row or tapered bearing carrier for that price.

Plus you can get the OEM bearings and seals for under a $100.00
(see below)

If you dont want to get the cheap chinese bearings that the aftermarket shoves down our throats then just remove the ones from your carrier and clean them up and take them to a regular industrial bearing distributor and let them size them up (they should still have p/n's ) and tell them you want a good japanese bearing (NTN, Nachi, NSK, KOYO etc).

Depending on the brand and the markup of the place you get them they may not be as cheap as the "kits" but should be less than the OEM.

from a online parts list.
26 91051-HA2-013 BEARING (40X62X12) 2 $34.85
28 91251-HA2-003 DUST SEAL (18X23X3) 2 $3.00

So if you order over the internet your looking at just under 76.00 + frt.

if you call http://www.herrmannracing.com/ **** sell you a set for under 20 bux(I think 12 bux ea)

I installed them in my lsr carrier..... so they work in anything....

all the carriers use the same size double carrier bearings..
