really doesn't matter who you order from. they pretty much stock the same stuff. Just find the best price. I myself prefer Timken bearings over the Federal Mogul, no paticular reason or anything to backup my preference.

Don't buy the charlie-cheapo's. They have a totally different manufacturing process that doesn't involve nearly as many quality control factors.

Other than that, it really doesn't matter what brand you buy, although Timken and BCA/Bower both are a really good brand.
