I picked a set up on E-bay and when they came they looked like they've been under water for a long time
... the bearings are rusted solid!!! I need to know what size the bearings are so I can hit the hobby shop for a new set?

You sandwich the steering between the chassis with a screw-

They should use the same 8-32 screws that mount the stock RC10 servo saver.

did you get the shoulder nuts with the bellcranks? (in the picture above, its the black nut on top). It's a shoulder nut that is threaded for #8-32 screws and OD of 1/4" for the bearings/bushings.
check out the manual for the worlds car, which uses a very similar setup:
