I can't seem to find these anywhere. Avidrc.com apparently has only 2 in stock, but I need 4. Is there any other place to find these suckers???
Here's the avidrc.com link. If you try to add more than 2 to your cart, you get a message saying they don't have that many in stock.

I emailed them and they were supposed to have some in this week (that was as of last week). So far, its Friday and no dice.

There are quite a few hits in google, but if you really look through them I haven't found a single one where you can just buy 4 of these bearings. Most of the hits are for ordering in bulk. The duratrax site was one I also looked at, they have the right size bearing, but its not flanged. Any other suggestions?

Could I ask what you're going to use 3/16 x 3/8 bearings for?
The RC10 used 3/16 x 5/16 flanged and 1/4 x 3/8 flanged.... maybe you've combined bearing sizes?

i think he's using b2/b3 cvd's. or atleast 3/16 stub axles.

Yeah, I'm moving to 2.2 tires so I just got the 3/16 axles so I need 3/16 x 3/8.

if your really having a hard time finding the flanged bearings, you could pick up a pair of 10t hub carriers and use 3/16 x 3/8 plain bearings.
