mark69sportsroof 31 Report post Posted March 31, 2014 Hey Guys, I need a help in locating the correct upper steering column tube bearing for a fixed steering column for my 69 Sportsroof. I ordered a Ford upper steering column bearing part # C7SZ-3517-C that states it fits 68-72 fixed column tube bearing. The outside diameter of the original bearing is 1 3/16". The one listed above is 1 1/2" in outside diameter. I have tried several auto parts shops and no luck on an aftermarket replacement. Any help on where to get one would be appreciated. Thanks Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NPD lists the same bearing for fixed & tilt columns but it does not list size, 3517-4. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
