- Bosch - Most expensive, but doesn't seem to come with seals
- ACDELCO - Name seems to be more established, not sure why
- SKF - Name seems to be more established, not sure why
Usually you pay for what you get- these brands are a bit more expensive than the others offered on ebay.
Don't want to hijack Jeff's post, but thought its relevant....
advice on quality / best buy is most welcome
Tx Tom
Strange thing is that the parts manual lists the part numbers to rebuild the one in the car now. Back in the day we used to do this regularly, new bearing and a carbon wear seal. I am sure that they are using better parts now.
Cheaper and easier to buy a rebuilt one I would guess.
