We need a new rear bearing for the chump car.
I noticed FAG are 38 and SWF are 82 from the bird board. Is the SWF better quality? Will the concours judges ding us? :-) John |

Have used just about every brand of sealed cartridge bearings known. I've smoked a good FAG and banged an SWF. Had both last and both fail. Both are decent brands. Luck of the draw. Based on average cost I go with the FAG but have been known to find SWF's cheap once in a while.
