GM used them in 1936 , but that probably isn't going to be much help.
I bought a nos one 15-20 years ago thru a bearing specialty house in Alexandria, Va. Even then it cost $75 plus UPS and they had to order it elsewhere for me.
I have a friend who solved the problem by making a brass bushing for a replacement.

From the Directory, Don's cell phone is 425 210 5147 and his email address is [email protected]
His rear hubs were perfect, I bought a set.

Don Wohlwend in Washington State was manufacturing new hubs, wheels and brake drums. I believe he sold the business to somebody in Canada. Give Don a call or try ACD Canadian contacts

With brakes, two cylinders are better than one.

It was also available from OLCAR Bearing Co, Southern Pines, NC, a few years ago; might still be. It is new Departure 900916.

This bearing shows up on Ebay occasionally. Also check the Cadillac and Buick parts sites. Expect to pay $ 80 - $100 for it.
