Default Transfer case rebuild - which kit to buy?

OK so for the past week or so I have been searching for a good rebuild kit for my NP233. Most of the threads on here point to this page on drivetrain.com. I don't have a problem with that, but there is no way to know the quality of the components in kits like this. Personally I would rather not put a bunch of mystery bearings in my case, but it appears most all of these kits are that way.

My question is this

To those of you who have done this or rebuilt another similar t-case, where did you get the rebuild kit? Did it have name-brand bearings (i.e. Timken) or Chinese parts? Your impression of the quality?

Thanks for your help!

Some additional links/comments for people looking for the same thing:

JB Conversions: I found this while searching for a slip-yoke eliminator, they seem to be the leader in this. Their kit is $200+ without a chain making it more expensive than any other. Excellent exploded views.

Yukon YK TC-15: This is sold in many places (my link goes to Summit Racing), HOWEVER I contacted the company and the tech that replied couldn't even tell me what parts are included let alone the size of the input bearing. I am staying away...
