Is there a place that sells a "Bearing Kit" for a Ford 9" rear axle assembly?  I want to O'haul this 3:70, 9" I have but I'd like to get all the bearings from the same place.  Has anyone had dealings with a supplier that is dependable?

There's more than 1 size of bearings in case you were unaware of that fact. I've been buying those listed with Timken bearings and a solid crush sleeve on ebay. I have better long term results with the solid spacer and shims instead of using the crush sleeve.

Yeah, I know there are more than one style.  I just figured some bearing supplier would have a cross over that would tell him what bearing set you would be for a specific rear end setup.  You say you have been using a seller on eBay.  I do like the solid pacer over the crush sleeve.  Any particular seller?

I went and dug through the file on the 72. In the last 2 years I have used All Powersports Drivetrain, user id 7079rp and Trendsauto.
All powersports sold the spacer separate. The invoice dated in 2018 was $69 for bearings and the spacer kit. I purchased 8.8 parts from Trendsauto. The parts were similar in both kits. It looks to me like Timken and Koyo are the 2 most common bearings used in the kits. The 9" kit was for a 28 spline rear with the 2.891 bearing.

Yukon Gear also sells quality sets with the solid spacer too.
Welcome to hell. Here's your accordion.
