Didn't you post that earlier in the thread too? or was that someone else?

Yep. It says India, and while I'd rather it say Spain, Germany, Italy, etc it doesn't. Its still an SKF bearing and one would hope that they produce the same quality of bearing regardless of which factory it comes from. I don't think I'll lose any sleep over it.

Personally, next time I'll source bearings indivually from the local store instead of a kit and end up with some nice Japenese ones. You live and you learn! Thats what the whole process was about!
