Odds are the bearings you get will be substantially better than the existing ones
Just remember on the rebuild to pull the inner seals from the bearings so the grease can get in
I rebuilt a spindle and installed "Timken " bearings , it is about a thousand percent better than a replacement one

Hi Oz, I just bought a LTX1046 with one rough spindle. Amazon has a set of 6204 Timken's that are suppose to fit. Not sure if the spindle is OEM or aftermarket. Also will need a new pulley as it's spline teeth are rounded.
Question about removing the seals.
If I remove the inner seals, then pump it up with grease thru the zerk.. how do I know when to stop? I wouldn't want to blow out the outer seal or curl the spring loaded lip of the seal around either shaft. Curious on your input. New member to the forum BTW.
