Need some non-tilt help - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well, the lower bearing in my steering column finally fell apart yesterday. Does anybody have the part number for this bearing? A diagram maybe? I looked in FAQ's but there is only tilt stuff there.

There is a full diagramn in the assembly manual for your year of truck. I don't have one, so I can't scan the page for you, but I am sure someone will.
I am posting just to recommend that you get the assembly manual. It is VERY helpful.

Yeah, I've been meaning to get a manual. Just got off the phone with the only half way decent parts place in town, and they couldn't find anything for me.

Is this what you're looking for? Sorry, don't have part #'s.

Here is a link to a service manual. This one is sold, but just wanted to link so you knew what I was talking about. Especially since I called it an assembly manual. The book is VERY helpful.

Thanks guys. I just got off the phone with Wes at Classic Heartbeat, and the bearings are in the mail.
