I run a T10 with the Needle pilot bearing in the crank in lieu of a Bronze pilot bushing which is what both the Toploader & T10 used (old technology) in the 60's & 70's. So far no issues, after many years of service. I measured the T10 input shaft and it was the same a a T5.

Andyl: If yours had a ball type bearing in it; that had been retrofitted by previous owner as a Bronze bushing would have been OEM.
