Ah, good point. I do honestly wonder if production quality of the Korean-made part is any different than the Chinese-made part.

Probably,if the comparative quality of their cars is anything to go by.

Of course Timken could have factories,or contractors,in both countries - & it's pot-luck which you get.

We just have to hope that parts made,wherever,to Timken's specs. are better than those made,possibly in the same factory, to be as cheap as possible.

I went with the MOOG since they had a 3 year warranty compared to the Timken 1 year..Don't know if Taiwan is different from mainland China...I think my last Moogs were from Mexico...50K ago. They were still good, but I will keep them as spares just in case.
