I have run County bearings in my TR3 with good results.  I believe that they 
are made by King.  The part numbers are very close if not the same as the King 
bearings.  King makes good bearings, but they are not lead-indium bearings if 
that is what you are looking for.  Joe(B)

All,

You may remember from 2 weeks ago my plea for sources of Vanderwall VP2 rod 
bearings.

I thought I  found a cache at Dave Bean, but when they arrived, they were 
crap Glacier aluminum.
Returned.

Then I found "VP2 equivalents" at Vizard's APTFast.  They arrived last 
night.  Package says made by "Country" in the UK, but elsewhere in the box 
it says made in Israel.  They look suspiciously like crap aluminum, not 
lead/copper as advertized, but I could be wrong.

Anyone had any experience with these Country bearings?
