I've seen kits for converting the angular contact ball bearings to tapered roller bearings (TRB's) on the front wheel hubs of our trucks. I was wondering if anyone who has made the conversion has the part numbers for the TRB's in the kits. I would like to get the bearings directly from an industrial distributor so I can be sure of the quality level being used.

Thanks for your help.
