FAG is now making the 72-76 lower steering column bearings sealed. The original ones were open on one side making them prone to dirt.

Not sure when the change over from the solid metal bearing and metal sleeve happened. Later cars had the plastic bushing that replaced the metal one and created the problem for the upper bearing. Lower ones usually only need replacement when they have become contaminated.
