SKF were the original investors into Volvo. The Volvo name came from a abandoned bearing project and it was that SKF building that was given for production of Volvo cars iirc

The instructors told us Brits. that most of the surrounding area was flattened and most of the factories were rebuilt, Sachs now had underground parking and lifts up into the plant. We were all a bit worried as it wasn't long after the war, our fears where allayed when somebody queried something the instructor said, He replied,with a smile,"Only Hitler is allowed to disagree with me" When we were ready to leave,we were all presented with a beautiful polished wood, baize lined case containing a set of factory tools.
Broke my heart,when mine were stolen on the Harwich to London boat train.

I don't think so ..... separately Google Wikipedia for SKF (Svenska Kullagerfabriken), and and Volvo (Aktiebolaget Volvo). Yes, Sach were a German company now part of ZF (ZF Friedrichshafen AG). Bob

What Bob said ^^^^^ - SKF have always been Swedish, i think (but not sure) the name translates as Swedish Bearing Manufacturer which couldn't be simpler.

Try Europarts, I replaced my 740 turbo water pump with a Europart one and it was very good quality, identical to original with all seals included.
