He's after bearings for the steering 'column' not the steering 'rack'.

Yea there nylon bushes right ?

Ive been told you can get them made up for about $ 70 at a engineer shop here. But I still have to check

My steering wheel jutters when I'm doing 80 km/h or more down the motorway
Between brassy & the gold coast so it's not because of bad roads.

I'm guessing this could be from a worn steering column bush or bearing.

Is that the same symptoms you get ?

I know I need a new ball joint bush on the passenger side front end
I tried to check out Bedford manor but his website is gone does anyone
Know if he is still trading spart parts for bedfords?

Cheers
