[DeTomaso] Wanted, used-old "Made in USA" BCA1625 bearing for destructive testing. Throw Out Bearing

[steven.liebenow at att.net]

Guys,

Have run into an issue with the Made in Mexico throw out bearings from BCA  
(#BCA1625) throwing the grease out.   Not sure if this is an isolated case or 
what...... but one of the guys in AZ happened to pull out his ZF after only 1400 
miles and the rear of the bearing was absolutely 100% covered with grease that 
had spooged out of the bearing case.  Not just a thin coat, but a serious 
slathering of the stuff!   (Old thread over on the PI forum)

I have never had an issue with the Made in USA bearings....but then again, how 
many times does one install a bearing and then pull it all apart again in short 
order???   Oh wait.....I guess I do that!   (I will be tearing out the ZF in the 
Goose in a week or so....and will check my USA bearing after only 2K miles or 
so.....we'll see)

ANYWAY, what I was hoping to find, was someone that has an old BCA1625  bearing 
with MADE IN USA stamped in the bearing shell that could be cut apart and 
compared to the Made In Mexico version to see what changed if anything!

Lemmeno!

Ciao!
Steve
