Pauls_Plymouth Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 Anyone have problems with steering play? My 51 Plymouth has new, correct bearings & race. If you are brave enough to get your steering box out of the car, you need the correct bearings. I found Rxxx Auto to have the parts, but the bearings were not fitting , the seals were ok. So i looked up in my Chilton parts manual, got the correct bearing numbers, searched eBay, found the correct bearings & race. The box takes two bearings (upper - lower) - both are the same number -> 669077. (you will need 2) The bottom race # TIMKIN 6CE, will be worn as it takes the full load weight of the shaft & steering wheel. The top race is integral with the shaft. Rock Auto has the correct seals, not correct bearing. This cross references with Ford tractor 1939 to 1964. Ford # 683571-A2 for the bearing, not for the race. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
