I wouldn’t go for non descriptive ebay rubbish as said Timken is probably the most well known, I think I ordered mine from Graham Goode in Leicester but they might have them on their ebay shop? Oops didn’t I just say ebay rubbish lol,
( but there’s will be of good quality )

Timken bearings are an old tried and tested brand which have always been recognised for their quality.
