I did the Lonestar dual row. It wasn't any more expensive than a stock one....

....and a Durablue axle.

Just find a used stock one on ebay. A 250r carrier will also fit. I bought a lonestar one time, nice carrier, but I bent my axle one day and it got chewed to pieces just like the stock one would have by the time i got it home. SAVE your money for go fast parts.

that depends, if you change your bearings like you should, you will have no problems with a stock carrier. I mean, you can get a stock carrier on ebay for less than 40 bucks. I only paid 20 for mine. Just remember that a carrier for a 250r is the same as the 400ex

i was thinkin about the RAD one because it looks like it has the grease zerk on the left side...i think with the places i ride i could get more life out of bearings if i greased them after every ride rather than the sealed setup the stock one has. I've also heard that changing bearings is hard..and i dont have any of the tools to do it..
