Les, Jim.
Thanks for the replies.
Sadly, bearing suppliers are not of any help, they tell me it's a non standard part, and/or a protected part too, so even if they had them, they are obliged to only sell them to the OEM, in this case LR or whoever make the columns for them (it's not Adwest, I've already talked to them)...
The bearing that came out, has no identifying markings on it whatsoever, making things even more dificult.
Jim, your post on March the 10'th, shows the exact same part I'm after. Interesting you had one with markings ("22/36 2RS made in W Germany") so I'll try looking that up.
I have obtained yet another complete column from the Finmere sort out on Saturday, and that one seems to turn freely, but noisily too, so that bearing is starting to go on that too... Well, it is another old one... But it is free running for the moment.
If I find a source, I'll report back here. Seems there might be a market for them, if I find some...
Cheers all..
