Default sealed axel bearings

can sealed axel bearings be used with nitro press in sleeves. I am having my gears, ball joints , gussets and sleeves done and thought it would be a good idea to put in sealed bearings but not sure if they will work. anyone have any input?

I think someone may have given you some misinformation. Theres a bearing in the hub and in the carrier. The axles seals are between the pumpkin and the tubes. No "axle bearings", per say, to worry about.

Are you asking about the tube end seals? If so, dont waste you're money on them. The differential is sealed inside so tube end seals are unnecessary.
