Steering Column Woes and Questions - Connector, Lower Bearing, and Coupler

Thought the bearing was good...anyway,make a washer. Rough cut a thin piece of aluminum or nylon drill a hole for a bolt and chuck it up in a hand drill. Bring it down to size like you would on a lathe. Then drill out the center. Finish the center with cutting bits in your drill. Should take less than a hour. Way less time than looking for one.
