carrier bearings

While working on the raduis arm bushings I looked at the drive shafts,I guess I should tell you my truck sits on grass all week long and some week-ends(I drive a company van)and the under side has alot of surface rust on the frame and drive train. Is there a good ,better, best carrier bearing? I'm putting a 460 C-6 in my truck in the future and I pull a 25' travel trail when we go camping. Just don't want to be found on the road dead!!!!! Thanks

Some are better than others, but the kit from summit racing will be fine.

Primary rig is Green Thunder:
95' F-150 XLT 4x4, 302, 5 spd, MSD 6A, Flowmaster American Thunder Exhaust, Sunroof, Clear corners w/ Diamond headlights, CD player with 2 10" subs and some 32" BFG Muds .

Check out my Gallery for a look-see.

Then theres:
99' Mustang GT 4.6L
88' F-250 Heavyduty 4x4 351/c6
95' Mercury Cougar 4.6L V-8
80' E-350 300/6 with a
3 spd column shifter. Weighs around 7,000lbs w. 65mph top speed, who wants to race me!

Timken makes about the best bearings out there if the drive line bearing is what you are talking about all you should need to do is if you want install a new one and since it sits in the grass alot and surface rust is your big concern just spray a light coat of WD40 on it or some other kind of light wieght oil to keep the moisture from getting to it and keep the bearing well greased and you shouldn't have a problem
