Unhappy HELP! JZZ30 Soarer differential side bearings

I have a 1994 Toyota Soarer (JZZ30) with a factory 5-spd / open dif (A02A)

I am installing a KAAZ 2-way LSD and need to replace one of my side bearings. They are the 2 identical pressed steel roller bearings that sit on either side of the dif.

Problem is that I cannot find the proper replacement bearing to save my life. Any parts I have tried to reference (ie, for sc300 or supra) have been incorrect. The part listed to the sc300 for example is a TINY bearing and doesn't fit.

I have the correct unit. My Kaaz LSD is model DAT3020 which is for JZA80 Supra/Soarer/SC300/SC400 etc.

The bearings I pulled off of my factory differential fit perfect onto the Kaaz but I cannot find a replacement.

Like I said .. the one that gets pulled up that I checked for at Toyota and even PartSource is incorrect and would never fit.

if the diff is a dat3020 then you should get a supra side bearings.

they use the same bearings. Kaaz wouldn't sell the DAT3020 under both models if the bearings were different in all 3 dimensions ..

my oem bearings fit just fine on the kaaz unit, as they should. the problem is that I'm getting referenced the wrong part number for a replacement... the new bearing under the matching part number does not fit.. on either the stock diff or my new kaaz unit
