Default Re: Upper Steering Column Bearing

Used a Briggs & Stratton 7028722YP in my F-1 column. Made in USA too.
These are also a flanged "wheel" bearing so I removed most of the OD of
the flange with about a minute's worth on the bench grinder. Interestingly,
if you you don't get too carried away with the grinder, it taps right
into the F-1 column with a pretty tight fit. (about a 1.375" bearing OD)
The ID on the bearing is 3/4" which fits the factory steering shaft perfectly.
I did discover that the repo steering shaft is not an exact & concentric
3/4" so it won't work with those......
