Default Front wheel bearings and a chain and sprocket kit

There are some deals going on at motosport.
What do you guys think of this chain and sprocket kit ?
JT Steel Chain And Sprocket Kit | MotoSport
Also what front wheel bearings do you guys prefer, moose, all balls, or pivot works ? There all the same price.

I don't know if they're all this way, but I had a set of all balls front wheel bearings that I rode on maybe 6-8 hours and they were shot. 3 of the 4 bearings you could hear grinding when you spun them. Don't think I'd buy them again. No experience with the others.

I sources the other bearings from a local bearing distributor and they were on the quad for another 4-5 years with no problems till I sold it. Check out this sticky:

Boss bearings I think are underrated.

That's where I got most of my bearings for my rebuild. Everything except the axle bearings which I got from work. I have zero hours on them so far so no comment on how they hold up.

I have a 13T JT front sprocket, seemed a little tight to get on, but has worked well for me..I dont think it is dirt relieved like some sprockets though..
