NTN or SKF bearings?

Post by marin »

Is one brand better (or worse) than the other? I'm looking at front wheel bearing kits for a GQ patrol, and have the option of either brand at approx. the same price.

skf are good
ntn are better.
you probably won't find an skf bearing in a supercar.
plenty of ntn's though.
however it is a wheelbearing in a 4x4. grease contamination (water and crap getting past seals and wipers) will have a much larger affect on wheel bearing life.
