Don't need end bearings because not spinning the screw. The ends need to be either externally threaded or internally-threaded so you can tension the screws. I've used both methods on different machines and prefer externally threaded as can get more torque.
The force required to take Sag out over 10ft is considerable so make sure the brackets holding the ends are substantial and adjustable so can align screw in two planes.
