Amazon.com and bearings

I am in the process of restoring my JD 60, and I am replacing all the bearings in the tractor before I paint it. I have the tractor apart and so far I have found two or three bearings that are in the process of failing.

With the amount of bearings I will be replacing, I was looking for different sources for bearings other than JD. I have crossed some of the bearings over to either Timken, Bower, or Hyatt/New Departure.

Any ways the question I have is has any one ordered bearings off of amazon.com, and if so, were you satisfied with the bearings that you received??

I haven't purchased any bearings from Amazon, but just recently I did buy a Prince 2 spool hydraulic control valve. I am more than satisfied.
 
I was going to order some tie rod removal tools from them today and they wanted a membership fee of $79.99 for the year. I don't know if I want the tools that bad or not.
 
I had crossed over some mower deck bearings and found then half the price of the dealer at Grainger. After I bought them I was PO'd to find them at half again of that price on Ebay. Pays to shop around.

Amazon does NOT have a membership fee. They do have what they call Prime, which is free shipping for a year for $79.99. But you are not required to use it.
 
I recently bought several transmission bearings for a JD-A on Ebay and even with shipping I was at about 1/3 of JD price.

I have purchase from Amazon for several years now. In fact, we did almost ALL of our Christmas shopping there. I have NEVER paid a membership fee.
 
If you can find any with the names you mentioned they will be as good as the dealer"s. If generic like most on amazon or ebay (most are the same sellers) they will be the new Chinese bearings. I"ve bought a bunch of them over the last month. Rebuilt my drill press last week and wanted better bearings so I went to my local industrial supply house. Ended up paying four times as much for the same Chinese bearings. They do work & are smoothe but they are not tight out of the box like the better name bearings so I don"t think they will hold up that long. I wouldn"t use them in a tranny.

BTW- Your local auto parts house can get those bearings as well.
 
I have rebuilt 7 running gears in the past 6 years and have bought all my Timken bearings from Amazon. Amazon has been less expensive than John Deere, NAPA, and Carquest. I'll continue to use Amazon.

If they are us bearings and a good brand I can"t see why not give em a whirl OEM are probly china on at least some of them maybe all of them
 
Very often Amazon is just a "store front" for a company. IOW, I own Bret's Bearings and I pay Amazon a fee to be one of their suppliers. You buy, they send me the order, I fill it and use Amazons mailing labels.

Amazon today is sort of like the Sears Big Book back in the day- you can get ANYTHING!
