  3. You need Torker DX bearings. You're LBS can get them.

  5. No, that I'm sure of. The LX bearing's inside diameter is smaller than
    the Qu-Ax hub, I'm positive the LX bearings wouldn't make it.

  8. Is it possible to put the 42mm bearings into the 40mm holders? I was
    able to do that on my Nimbus II, with no problems, though I HAVE heard
    that other people have had problems. Or is the problem that the
    current setup is using 42mm and you want to start using 40mm?

    Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total
    obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and
    through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see
    its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will
    remain.

    somtimes it is possible but in this case its not the outside diameter we
    are talking about....its the inner diameter.

    so once again for the record:

    LX 17mm inner 40mm outer <--- found easily

    DX 20mm inner 40 outer. <---found only though Torker USA
