I like jimsbearings.com they are pretty similar to fast eddies but I think Jim’s are slightly cheaper.

I've bought kits from quite a few different places over the years and the only ones I wouldn't buy again are the Boom Racing and DSM Offroad ones, or any of the other kits that ship from China.

Fast Eddy, Jim’s, Avid, Boca, etc are all fine

Jims work nice. I have had excellent luck with DSM also. Been using them for years. I have a hunch MANY of these brands come from the same or similar manufacturers.

I have been a big Fast Eddy supporter but I've recently started using Jim's just to see if they are any better. So far they seem about the same.

If you haven't done so already, make sure your kit comes with the 4 bearings for the steering rack (or whatever its called in RC land) to replace the stock brass bushings. That picture above of a Jim's Bearings set does not appear to have these. I just replaced all the bearings in my son's Outcast with Fast Eddy's and those were included in his kit.

Jim's Bearings has the option for the steering rack bearings. Just not pictured.

I haven't noticed any difference between Fast Eddy, Jims or TRBRC to be honest, they all work the same for me.
