Can't see it on there now but keep an eye out - they are hard to come by! If this bearing is worn it causes erratic front end wobble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoelsBuicks Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Interesting side note about this part on my 36 Sr. 80. The cast part that houses those two bearings had no fitting for grease. I source the bearings from a local bearing company - a tiny bit thicker if I recall but there was all kinds of room to accommodate that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
