Any one know were to get one of these barrings for my 65 A body? I am rebuilding the hole column so might as well replace the barring while I am there.
Thanks
 

Mine did not go bad, just the seal around the barring is shot. No way to keep lube in it.
 
That rubber grommet was not supposed to be a seal. It's just there to keep the bearing tight in the housing. When I have a column apart, I just regrease that bearing and call it a day. It's not exactly a high speed application here! :-)

Hay thanks! I will just have to find some really thick grease to squeeze in there. Or maybe spray it with some chain lube.
