Frequently asked questions

What is the RTC324 steering column ball bearing for?
RTC324 is the upper ball bearing for the steering column assembly of the Land Rover Series 1 (1948-1958). It locates the top of the steering shaft within the column housing, allowing smooth rotation while supporting the steering wheel and eliminating play at the top of the column.
Where exactly in the Series 1 steering column does this bearing sit?
This bearing fits at the upper end of the steering shaft inside the column housing. There's typically a separate lower bearing at the base of the column too. This is the upper position only, so check whether both bearings need replacing when the column is disassembled.
What are the signs the upper steering bearing needs replacing on a Series 1?
A worn upper steering column bearing typically causes play or wobble at the steering wheel, a rough or gritty feel when turning, or a knocking sensation through the column. Deterioration can be gradual on Series 1 vehicles, so check during any steering column service.
