Allan, my '51 International L-110 has tapered roller bearings on the front spindles...as did the '46 International K-2L pickup I owned back in the early 1970's. In fact, IH used tapered roller bearings on the front spindles of K-1/K-2/K-3 trucks as early as 1941, according to my MT-52D parts book.

...Oh...

...Maybe you were talking about Chevy, and their "bicycle bearings" they held onto for so long. But "real" trucks went to tapered bearings at least by the early 1940's...and I'd assume by 1939 at IH, when they were already using them on the front spindles of H and M Farmalls.
