    I'm getting ready to order a master bearing kit for the rear end.And was wondering is there any difference between the NCB(north coast bearing)and the timken bearings. One kit cost $75 NCB and the other timkens cost is $128,I have a new eaton 3 series that will get a new 3.36 gear and pinion that will go into a 8.2 bop.One more thing what is fair price to set up the rear end?
    Thanks for all of your input.

    Hmmm? http://www.dtcomponents.com/

    "In 1997, North Coast Bearings and The Timken Company formed a strategic alliance to market and distribute differential rebuild kits, transmission rebuild kits and related products to the heavy, medium and light duty aftermarkets under the product name DT Components."

    That's your best bet. The GS rear uses hard-to find wheel bearings. Jim would know all the details. The large parts suppliers might send you the wrong parts.
