Like i've said before, surplus center charges $11+ for shipping, so thats 20 a piece not 9.

that ebay deal was the best i could find. 2 for 16 aint bad.

my opinion of course, but pillow blocks don't exactly ooze reliability on something that will most likely be heavily off-roaded

What do you suggest instead of pillow blocks? that is what many people use, and they are very very strong.

i just checked surpluscenter, it was $31 for 2 of them shipped.
The ebay ad is 25.33 shipped.
Ebay wins.
But I went to Northern tool this morning and got 2 for $18 for my oldschool mini dragbike.
Now I just need a ft. of 1" keyed shaft.
