32005 and 32007.

I forget what "brand" they are, but they both came direct from China. It was some random three letter name. I got them on ebay. They actually started sounding noisy and I put SKF bearings in the spindle, but I burnt those up and was in a pinch, so I put the noisy Chinese bearings back in to get the parts made. To my surprise they got quiet again after running them a bit with the automatic oil and they have been in the spindle ever since.

I have two complete sets of these (links below) in my drawer that I will install once the Chinese set go bad. Anyways, sorry for the long story, but some active lubrication seems to go a long way towards making the bearings last. Especially so with coolant.

I actually appreciate the long story with all the info you shared, as it's very much appreciated. Thank you and Happy New Year to you!
