Thanks to all that replied. The trunnion bearings that came out were
definetely solid "brass", and a set of new ones I have were also solid
brass.
So I need to source some phosphor bronze or bearing bronze trunnion
bearings. I installed a new pair of in stock brass ones and used grease
directly injected into the trunnions to get me by for now. Winter is nearly
here and I need to have the car mobile.
Thanks again, Bob Grunau
Mike, Bob, Lew, etc.
I believe this is what I made mine from, bearing bronze or phosphor bronze.

I recall always seeing them referred to as "bronze" or even "phosphor
bronze" trunnions. Can anyone verify this?
