Front Wheel Bearings - Who makes them?

[scott.john.mockry@bangate1.tek.com]

Regarding the earlier question about replacing front wheel bearings and who
manufacturers good replacements.

I am in the process of installing Eric Fletcher's  suspension kit on my 
89 200TQ and I decided to replace both front wheel bearings and the
lower control arm bushings while I have the whole front end torn apart.

I picked up some replacement bearings from Halsey Imports for $46 each and
noticed they were made by SKF in Italy. I was not too excited about getting
these bearings as I usually get replacement bearings made by FAG.
The dealer wants $129 EACH for replacement bearings!

After removing the front strut assembly, I notice to my dismay
that the original bearings are stamped with the SKF label and 
are also made in Italy! 

Who would of thought this was possible..............

I always thought that my 200TQ rode like a Ferrari! 
It must have been the bearings.......Enzo would be proud
