Steering column repair

I was replacing the key lock cylinder on my 91 tbi camaro when during the disassembly the bearings on the shaft up by the tilt had fallen out and the ***** had all fallen out ...is it possible to replace just these bearings?

Maybe something from this sticky from the Suspension/Chassis forum:

Re: Steering column repair

If the plastic carrier is still intact you can use grease to hold the ***** in place and just put them back. Otherwise you can buy a kit which has two bearings in it, the top and the bottom one.
