the LSR carriers on ebay are probably the best bang for the buck. Heres one:

There are tons on ebay. I have had great luck with the Lonestar ones.

A word of wisdom... be cautious with what you're getting for the Lonestars. Usually the inexpensive ones are their "cheaper" units, they're cast aluminum, similar to stock. Their billet ones are typically a big chunk more, just make sure you're getting a billet one.

I've used Burgard's, and a few other billet jobs from ebay with great luck. I actually broke a cast LSR one before though, would never buy one of them again.

OEM is actually one of the best ones you can get. To my knowledge OEM and I believe Baldwin are the only one's that use a hardened spacer tube between the bearings, the others just use mild steel. That was never really an issue for me and for most it wont be. If I was doing a desert race or something, I'd be running one of those though.

true i was able to get a billet lsr one for 120$ from a member on here with almost brand new bearings.

The LSR one uses (least the billet setup) the same type of hardened steel tube as the stock carrier.
