Keep in mind that whatever 9" axle assembly you choose will most likely have to be narrowed, at which time you can put whatever housing ends and bearings on it that you want. The best bearing set up is the Timkin tapered roller bearing, commonly called a set 20 I believe. How it got that name I am not sure. It will take much more thrust (To us that is sliding around turns) than a typical sealed ball type bearing.
