Do you really mean ball bearings because I have never seen one and would not consider using one if I came accross one.. If you mean a roller bearing assembly, yes they are considered to be the best( over the '40s design bushing)

I used the same bearing ASM recomended by the dealer and it works great with about 30K miles on it.
