The lower of the two upper bearings in my 1982 Cherokee fell to bits - scared the daylights out of me.
The plastic race is completely toast, all the ball bearings are gone. The upper bearing *might* be salvageable.
Local bearing place just shrugged when I told them it was a common GM steering column that I am pretty sure was used in local Holdens / Chevies etc. I only see one steering column bearing listed at the site and I'm pretty sure it's not the ones that sit inside the tilt mechanism (where mine are gone).
Anybody know where/how to get the bearings, what to order or what to ask for? Are they a common size and I can just order them from a bearing place?
