Hi Karl,
Thanks for the mention, this is a great resource for the exchange of information.
There is a bearing and seal company here in Sydney (Au) where I was able to buy new bearings for virtually all the bearings in my 1922 and 1929 Packards. They got to know me well over many years, usually greeting me with "Oh no, not you again, what is it this time!" but they actually went out of their way to help and when I showed them that kingpin bearing they came up with those tapered roller bearings. My memory is that they came from a Nissan Patrol but maybe they were also from the Toyota.
I am enjoying your 136 Sport restoration story, it will be a stunning car.
