Final Solution - the reason for the upper bearing failure was that the vertical shaft tip was halfway worn down to the point where the bearing slipped out, wobbled, broke apart and cause all the problems. I'll order a new shaft & be back in business. K5lwq, I packed both my bearings in the past as you did.

Thought you'd all like to see how far the shaft tip wore down (more like 80%) vs the old one. Thanks to Bob over at Michigan Iron for a fast delivery.

All back together and working fine. Everyone have a great weekend. If it wasn't raining, I would. Be safe out there fellow tractor buffs.
