Yep, exactly. Installation of the new one requires it to be pressed into place, which means removal of the tube, which is apparently a pain (I'm just waiting for my bearing to fall out... fingers crossed...).

Not to hijack this thread but, what's the p/n and dimensions on the steering column roller bearing? Thanks.
