ER-16 bearing doesn't fit on steering shaft

A guy on Moparts suggested that I try a sanding roll and Dremel.
He said he didn't believe it until he made a couple of 8-3/4" setup bearings that way in minutes.
I wouldn't have believed it either... so I tried it :D

A couple minutes back and forth, round and round with a 1/2" sanding roll and opened it right up to 1.006... It went on the shaft like butter!

Now on to the next issue. I may need to modify my clutch pedal attachment for the hydraulic master... another "while I'm in there", since access is easier without the steering column and bracket in the way :)
