Hello, anyone had any experience with the differential carrier bearings that the Filling Station sells, looks like they might come from Korea by the picture on the website.

Thanks

First choice I would scour ebay with a GM part number, that is how I found mine and got oem first over anything imported.Ended up being a little cheaper too, bonus!

Would you happen to know the GM part number or have access to it somehow?

If you pull it out and measure things it's usually straightforward to find something in a modern bearing catalog...
I swear by koyo bearings (japanese brand). Their part numbers are typically the same as timken or skf. Also good.


koyo bearing catalog
more special purpose bearings

Check with NAPA also, their top grade of bearings are really good. It helps to have a bearing number before going in.
