Anyone found a beefier center support carrier bearing? Mine are shot in a year, and come apart by two.
Gotta be something out there that has more substance!

I had the same issue as you. I wound up buying it the last time from the dealer. Been nearly a year, and all is fine, but who knows how long that will last..

It sucks. I think next time I am just going to pop for the one piece, 5" aluminum tube (unless I finish the GV first!).

I think the legit spicer center bearing/units are much beefier looking than the factory piece. My local driveline shop installed it on one of my old trucks. The bracket itself is way heavier built, but if you're wasting them quickly, maybe something else is wrong?

If my memory serves me correctly, www.IEDS.com has a polyurethane center bearing. I don't know anything about it, but it sounds like it may be pretty beefy.

I looked up that site, it is Driveline Parts: SFI Foundation, Driveshaft, Yoke, Universal Joint, Custom Driveshaft. Inland Empire Driveline Service.
