So, I'm posting this here since I didn't come up with any good results when I searched. I spent way too much time trying to figure out the numbers on the bearings, too.
After removing my steering wheel for some R&R, I decided to see what conditions some of the bearings in my steering column were. I figured after more than 30 years, these things may need a replacement.
The topmost bearing that sits in the steering column upper bracket (#45275 in pic below, where the key goes) is: NSK 18BSC01 (That's a ZERO, not the letter O.)
It's called a steering main shaft bearing.
The TOYOTA PART NUMBER IS: 90363-18001
The dimensions are:
Inner (d) = 18.75 mm
Outer (D) = 40 mm
Width (B) = 10 mm
Supposedly, there are 3 bearings in the column and circled in blue as shown in the picture below. NOTE THAT THESE ARE NOT THE SAME PART NUMBERS! THEY ARE DIFFERENT BEARINGS!
