Default Re: Poor quality transmission roller bearings

I have even not bought NOS in the box Ford. Always pull away the paper and inspect. I have found many NOS in the box with rusty bearing faces. Little patches and such. Kind of disappointing.
I think I mentioned the Hyatt Box with a bearing inside for sale on Ebay. The bearing was NOT like any Hyatt bearing I've ever seen. But the substitution may not have been intentional - one hopes anyway. Just somebody cleaning out Granpa's drawer of Model A parts who didn't know better?

Sometimes its hard to think the best.
