Ernie Martin is an unknown quantity at this point
My parts catalog does not show any such numbers. The nose wheel design changed in the middle of the '73 run (S/N 1568 has old design, S/N 1569 the new design), but none shows your part numbers. Nor have I ever heard of a heavy-duty nose gear assy, unless the 0-2 has one and this came from one.

Suggest two things. Call Don Nieser at 405-503-4686 or 405-722-4079 and see if he can help. If he can't help, go to a good bearings supplier with your old bearing and get a replacement.

Incidentally, per Matt Rogers' suggestion in another message that Agape Flights was looking for an aircraft that can be "rented, borrowed, loaned, leased", I offered my 1973 Skymaster at a deeply discounted rate (I'm in Miami), but there was no interest.
