According to my Jeep '81-'86 parts manual - if the highlighted bearing is the one in question - they are the same for floor & column, tilt and non-tilt.On a CJ, is there even a difference, with regards to the lower steering column bearing, a difference between manual/auto transmission
I messed with Josh's Scrambler a few years ago, factory auto column, I don't remember a difference in the lower bearings, I could be wrong
They also appear to be the same for the XJ, SJ, & J series.
That being said...you would think the manufacturer/seller would know for sure.

Considering it is for the following vehicles:
There may be a difference in the GM vehicles with a column shifter and a floor shifter.
I’ll wager that the jeeps all use the same one.
Here is a link to the Wolff Engineering column bearing.

Was looking to see if the automatic versions were in stock and all are now sold out again.
Guess you have to strike while the iron is hot. Also not sure why they don't produce more if they can't keep a few on the shelf. Seems to tell me the demand is there or the price is too low, or both.

I emailed them A week ago, about the automatic bearings and when they would be available. They replied very soon. ?Was looking to see if the automatic versions were in stock and all are now sold out again.

Wow you guys have been having fun with my thread. 
Anyway, worked on a few things after our long trip back home to Virginia from Utah. My shifter had gotten hard to shift at nationals so I ordered up a new cable thinking it had gotten to close to the exhaust underneath and melted. Turns out the cable was fine but the winters shifter block had locked up at the pivot point. With only 500 miles on the rig either something got in there or is was a manufacture defect. Called the place i got it from and they had parts on the way right away.
I also ordered up parts for a rear traction bar. I noticed at nationals my soa set up was wrapping quite a bit more than i liked. Its something I had planned to do but just ran out of time before the trip.

I saw the email alert and assumed it would be painting it red, given the thread title
It’s like a tomato, one day it might ripen.
