[AT] country disc well grounded

[Ken Knierim]

I think it's E.B. Atmus. I only dealt with them once but was very
happy with the service. They had some steering gearbox bearings for my
Case 400 that I couldn't find locally. Ordered them over the internet
on Sunday and had them by Thursday. Not bad considering they're east
coast and I'm in the Southwest.

Hope this helps.
