When it comes to something like the steel in a U-joint.... Japan hands down! When I was younger, I never thought there would be a point in my life I would be asking for Japanese steel. That time came a decade ago. Japanese steel over Chinese for sure... some of the Chinese stuff is good, but you just cannot trust where it came from. I feel the there is more consistency in the Japanese steel.

I feel like the problem now is that... they have applied the everything is disposable to automitive replacement parts! Bummer!
