Hi all, I am wondering if anyone knows where I can get a replacement bearing assembly for the bottom of my steering box.it is called a lower worm gear roller bearing. the only place I have found them is in a kit thats pretty expensive when I only need one bearing

I looked in to this before deciding to buy a couple of bearings for for my '41-'46 box. Go about 1/2 way down the page to the one piece bearing replacement. Looks like '41-'59 use the same bearing, which is the same as the tractor bearing here,

How about this from the Filling Station

This is the part number, Part 8N3571-52, its suppose to be a direct replacement for the bearing and race.

The link from the filling station has just the bearing for $17.

Not sure why the links are not acting right, but you can copy and paste.

Joe H. you did it! They had the bearings I was looking for. Thanks for the help. trucvk will be way easier to drive w/o crushed bearings in the bottom fo the steering box.
