Replaced the original one a couple years ago after it started making the slightest of noises. New one has been screaming for months, finally decided to have at it again.

What’s our take on bearings for these?
Sleeve bearings are quiet for 2 or 3 years, but toast after 5
Ball bearings are a bit louder but last 10 years
If I were designing it, I would use needle bearings.
