You will have to check to see which type you have.
Metal center bushing use VW 111 953 559A 1972-1973 (maybe some early 1974)

Plastic center bushing use VW 111 953 559C 1974-1976

Porsche Part 911 347 771 02 is the same as VW 111 953 559C

INA F-580801 is the same as 111 953 559C or Porsche 911 347 771 02

Metal center bushing for VW 111 953 559A is 111 953 535D

Added Ebay screenshots of bearing sellers. They are reproductions, German ones maybe NLA at this point. Picture of metal center bushing added.

Just watched Ian's brakes and bearings vid - I think he said he's on to steering column and wiring next . . .

Whaddya say, Ian . . .are you going to back date to the metal column in your vid?

Hopefully you change the upper and lower . . .ah, the burden of complete instruction, eh?

Either way, we appreciate your videos!
