  4. I need new steering knuckle thrust bearings for my President ES 1927, but cone looks very special. It is with integrated pin. Timken number is 21088. I need at least one new or good used bearing, or can i use some other type, if i make pin separately? EP and EQ models is with same type of bearings.
