I was laying under my rig a while ago and noticed that the rubber around my carrier bearing on my rear driveshaft was getting wore out. I bought another carrier bearing and have tried to install but can't figure out how to get the old carrier bearing off. We have a shop press but it looks like the carrier bearing diameter is smaller than the diameter of the splines at the end of the shaft. As far as I can figure i would have to cut the driveshaft apart to put the new bearing on. I do not plan on doing this though and have to think there is something i am missing here. Anyone with any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, ONETWOPUNCH

 

there is a colar on the bearing that comes off first and then it should just press off with no problem.

 

yea take the coller off. autozone gave me the wrong one the first time, wouldnt fit over the splines. got the right one from napa, $50+
