Assessing bearing on Ivers and Pond 1904 upright. Advice sought.

[gordon stelter]

I'm getting ready to dissassemble a magnificent,
massive 
Ivers and Pond "artcase" upright with mandolin rail,
soft pedal compensating WN&G action, etc..  Besides
checking "that there is some", what guidleines for
checking the bearing on this thing, strung and up to
pitch, are there, before I break it down and lose all
this available data ? In other words: how much should
I look for, and what is the best method of measuring
it?

    Thanks!
     G
