Hey Matt, unfortunately it does not look like there are any Timken kits for your 2022 Airstream Basecamp 20X. There are replacement bearings # L68149 and races # L68111 that are sold individually, however.

If there is something else I can do to help, please feel free to let me know!

Hey Matt, did the individual L68149 bearings and L68111 races end up working for your Basecamp 20X? Knowing how that setup turned out could help others looking for a Timken alternative.
