The General stayed with the barrel roller type bearings through and beyond the war years but I think they fell by the wayside not too long after. I doubt anyone uses them today. New Departure were the main and possibly the only manufacturer.
The CCKW banjo diff trucks used them for the diff carrier and as rear wheel bearings. L/L Chevs used exactly the same bearings in the same place. The only place you will find Timken Tapers in a banjo diff CCKW are the pillow block and front axle swivel and wheel bearings.
The split diff CCKW had Timken Tapers everywhere they could possibly use them which is quite understandable.
