you can get the bearing on ebay. it is called a "collar bearing" i paid $7 for it. the outside diameter is 52mm and the inside is 1". im sure you can get them at a local bearing supplier with the correct 3/4" inner dimension. i think you will find that most of our columns have lower bearings that are completely shot. mine was missing all together. they depend on the steering box to support them. I will be adding a borgeson univeral joint as soon as it gets here in the mail. that will deal with the large sloppy factory joint at the steering box.
