Steering column parts
Howdy, I need some parts for my steering column 59 Catalina, I'm after the top bearing and the plastic bush that holds the horn wire that runs down the steering column,they look like they might come as a pair, also I need a new neutral safety's switch, I bought one from Ames that looked correct but it didn't fit and can t find one anywhere, I've got a nice grants steering wheel and horn kit to go on the column but the previous owner has got rough and damaged the bush and bearing at the top, they had grafted on a Chevy steering wheel which was a P.O.S cheers

The bearing is reproduced but I have found they are not very good, finding a good original is better and it can be from any 59-64 full size GM vehicle. I probably have one. As to the NS switch that is not reproduced but, I have one of those as well.

On my 61, the upper bearing balls were rusty, but the races cleaned up fine. I measured the balls and found a package of 100 online, cheap. Forgot how many I used, maybe 20, but everything is fine now. If anyone needs some "balls", send me a PM or message.
