Jmp

I had a look at the new jeep pinion bearings I bought. The boxes are printed with the 'Joe's Motor Pool' brand and 'Designed in the USA' No country of origin is visible on the boxes but I'd guess it would be India.

The bearing number and 'Joes Motor Pool ' are faintly visible on the bearings themselves on the cups.

I've been informed that JMP does outsource manuafacturing to places such as India. Does anybody know anything about what's going on ?
