Unfortunately, even though we want USA made parts, sometimes even those aren’t exactly what they seem. I had disc brakes installed in June and had Timkens installed with them. The boxes and bearings said USA, but on the boxes there was a note that said assembled in the USA with components possibly from other countries, or something to that effect. No different from most anything we buy anymore, including our vehicles, and especially our RV’s. At least with the Timken bearings, you at least know what company is connected with the product, unlike the Chinese bearings, even though they are sold through Dexter.
