Here's a link. Check out the product info in the right column. Ratech uses a mix of bearings. I used a Richmond master install kit and it came with Timken bearings for the ring/pinion and carrier with Torrington bearings for the axles, all bearings were made in USA.

I used the Ratech master kit. The axle bearings were Torrington, pinion was Timken, and carrier were Koyo USA/Japan. I talked with my uncle about the kit (he rebuilds Jeep differentials for a living) and he said they are all high quality bearings.
