Default Moog Parts

So race vette in need of a front end refresh. I already ordered the ball joints and went to order the bearings. Usually, I purchased MOOG units off RA as Timkens warranty sucks. I noticed I can't get the front end bearings from MOOG any more. My MOOG parts used to say "made in USA" and now they don't either. Did they just decide to offshore everything while simultaneously charging made in USA prices?

I'm now hard pressed to pay multiple times more in cost for parts that aren't made in US. Still won't buy timken because their bearings only last about a season (race use) and that doesn't do any good when I was replacing chineesium crap on the same refresh cycle.
