Lead acid batteries

Yup, thus is true. My Duramax has an appetite for wheel bearings. Front end guy I use told me to stay away from China bearings. Went to my buddy at NAPA,China. Went to the small parts house in Suncrest, think it is Automotion or something like that, China. Went to the General Store, Ace hardware...China. Guess I will be putting another set of bearings on it in 15k. Just glad I am not paying the full $185 for them....My NAPA buddy sold me thelast set for $129 each..

I've had the same problem with bearings Doug, can't find ANY that are not made in China. And I had to replace both sides again within a couple years.

About batteries, in the past I've had to replace my battery knowing I would not keep the car for very much longer, in that case I might go with the cheaper, low-tech battery. I guess there's still a market for them.
