I have been in the process of replacing an ignition switch on my 73 914. During this found the reason why my steering wheel had a lot of slop in it. The upper steering wheel bearing was done for. So while im here im going to replace it. However im having issues with ordering the correct bearing.
Referencing this old thread:
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=182321
I can get this part number: 911-347-771-02-M100.
Now searching for that gives only parts for a 911, am i correct in assuming this is the same part? Just numbers have switched?
For reference this is what I pulled from my steering column. The exact process as stated in the mention thread. Mine didnt have any plastic bushing to speak of (probably because it rotted out)
Bearing Part number: F-43188
