Agreed;
BCA is a well regarded manufacturer of bearings, regardless of what store it
comes from.
And the two kits have different sized inner bearing IDs.
The stand alone bearing is sized for the stock aluminum trans shaft.
The bearing in the with the steel quill is sized for the quill, which is
larger, because the steel quill slips over the trans shaft.
And I know this bearing has the nylon inner face on it for friction
reduction.
One size must be more common for it to be less expensive.
I would recommend the quill kit in any case, not because of cost, but
because of durability concerns.
