clarkz71 Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Can anybody tell me a source for US made Front bearing/hub part # 513121 ? Fits many GM vehicles including my 2000 Eldo. I ordered a Timken off Amazon & even though most reviews said "Made in the USA" this one says S Korea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkz71 Posted May 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Already have seen that, goggle search. The studs he noted tipped me off, though my box did have Timken color changing sticker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkz71 Posted May 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Well I checked Mac's thread again, I now believe my hub is genuine Timken just made in Korea. Still, I contacted Amazon and asked for a replacement. Below is my bearing & Mac's, his knock off first, note on mine it is flush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockfangd Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 JUst my 2 cents. I used to use nothing but Timken, until they started outsourcing and dropped their warranty down to 1 year. Last 5 years I have been using MOOG and have had no come backs. Also have 3 year warranty. Very good quality. I should know as I have done tons of hub assemblies and hub bearings. GM FAN FOREVER Nice, clean, luxury= fine automobile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the replacement Timken is not US made I'll check local parts stores that carry Moog for US made hubs. I understand even Moog has some Asian sources.
