Not sure if it matters but I got a SKF front from rock auto and it’s made in China. I haven’t installed it yet, could be perfectly fine.
I would personally be comfortable putting in a Chinese SKF, but knowing that I'd prefer Koyo given the choice. SKF is a global manufacturer and their bearings are well-used in industrial applications. If they are manufacturing bearings in China at a SKF factory (as opposed to having a 3rd party manufacture them), they are probably good.

I am pretty sure the SKFs I put on our Outback where made in South Korea, but that was a number of years ago so I don't 100% recall.
 
Go Hokies! Lot of blurry memories in that town. If he drives to class tell him the best way to get a spot is to wait by the parking lot stairs and offer the kids going to thier cars a ride to thier car as a trade for thier spot. Great way to meet girls
Mmmmmmmm, that's a little creepy

Took apart center console to replace DAC bulb and when putting it back together I didn't hook up the electrical shifter cable. I realized this after a no crank. Got it plugged in. Same issue no crank. No codes, I checked fuses. Any idea???

Saw an ad on FB Marketplace for EBC 5th gen 4Runner rotors and scored them for $50. Couldn’t pass that up.

Front differential was dripping from both plugs. Replaced with new ones and new crush washers from belle lexus. Torqued to 29 ft/lbs and no more leak!

Front driver side brake caliper hardline was also weeping ever so slightly from the caliper so I replaced it as well. Tried installing it upside down for a frustrating 45 minutes, got completely soaked in brake fluid and worried I had stripped it since it wouldn't seat in the caliper. Hit it with a die (M10 1.0) which went on so smooth i realized i didnt actually strip it and it was just upside down. The side that goes to the brake line has about 3mm at the base where there is no threading. Installed it the right way and no more leak!.
