It’s this one SER205-16 1" ER16 Insert Ball Bearing With Snap Ring NEW ER205-16 | eBay

I should have installed it before I had the joint welded to the steering shaft but I didn’t think ahead. I’m trying to drive it down the steering column from the top and the fit is too tight. I sanded the steering column, now I need to sand/file the bearing.
I made the same mistake…. lol. I ended up cutting off the coupler, installing the bearings and welding it.

I’m doing the same setup on the dart but this time I’m going to use a double d shaft and set screws instead of welding it up in case I have to disassemble at some point down the road.
