Default Halibrand 201

Hey fellas , can anyone recommend someone who sells rebuild kits ie bearings gaskets ect for halibrand 201 rearend ? Seen speedway sells everything separately but not sure if it’s off shore bearings and the last thing I want is bearing failure. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks

Check with Gearhead QCE over on the HAMB. He's the resident guy for QC repairs.

When I did mine I just used the bearing numbers and the local bearing shop.

I would think there would be good quality Timken bearings available at your local bearing store? Forgot about Hot Rod Works.

I have no issue with Hot Rod Works as I work with them from time to time. My comment was that I forgot to mention them for QC repairs, probably one of the best out there. Hope this clears this up???????

Thanks, I believe I misread your post. Like I said, I have never used them but thought they had a good rep.

Hot Rod Works is definitely good to work with. If they tell you something, you can bank on it.
