Recommendation for replacement linear bearings

Hi all,

I know there are talks on this but wanted to revisit it a bit. What would be a recommended straight replacement for the original bearings on the MK2?

I don't have noise issues or anything else but just want to get some stocked up for future use. Always keep a good supply of spare parts for my printers!

I have a set of the Igus Drylin bearings I was going to use for the build but when I saw the slop in them I went with the original supplied bearings and they have been fine.

I am just looking for suggestions for a quality direct replacement.

Thanks for any info.

I guess Misumi LMU-8 would fit your needs.

Good quality, direct replacement, not too expensive...

Thanks for the suggestion. As i looked through older posts I did see this one come up. Looks to be cost effective.
