How does FAG wheel bearings compare to SKF brand? I have quite a few wheel bearings to replace from my 83.5 Westy. These two brands of bearings seem to be most popular and available. Are there any significant quality differences or issues with each brand of bearings? They are both German. FAG seems make their own bearings. SKF looks like a business that sources automotive parts from thousands of manufacturers all over the world. I may be wrong. I am trying to decide which I should buy from. Thanks a lot for any comments.

David
