If the stock ones will fit use them. If not look for a bearing shop in your area and take the axle and bearings from new wheel in and have them measure both components. $50 outta get you on the road. Not hard to do yourself, 30 mins should get the old ones out and new ones installed.

If the bearings don't fit you may have to change the hub.It happend to me the same way.I called the co. and told them I got the wrong size bearings in the wheel and they changed the hub and bearings for $38.I had to pay to ship it but I still saved!
