rebuilding roller rockers?

Anyone know about this? I have a set of blue roller rockers, they have no stamp on them saying what they are.. I was told by the seller that they are 1.5 scorpion RR's so can I get a some new bearings for them since they are falling out..?

Thanks

try BDI Inc. for parts since you don't know who made them. i'd suspect cheap no name rockers aren't worth rebuilding.

Probably not... the only ones I know of that can be (at least, for less money than replacing them) are high-quality, steel ones. None of those generic aluminum ones are made for that. And if they have enough use on them that the bearings are worn out, then the aluminum body is probably pretty fatigued too, and they might be ready to break in half like aluminum ones do when used on the street, which argues even more against spending any money or effort on them.
