I was leaving in early in the morning for a week long fishing trip. I pulled my truck in shop to get it ready when i noticed a bearing howling. after pulling off the serpentine belt the fan mounting bracket bearing was the culprit.
i havent disassembled anything else yet . is the bearing replaceable or do you have to get a bracket assembly. does any one have part numbers for these: either entire fan mounting bracket assy or the replaceable? bearing

thanks

The bearing is replaceable I have had mine apart I made a longer new shaft for for mine to space the elec.clutch for the fan.this is a 12v but I think its the same part.

 

got the fan mount disassembled the bearing number on the bearing is a
NTN part number. DFO766LUA
everything was a press fit.
hopefully i can get a bearing cheaper than the whole assembly.

update: dodge p/n for this bearing is 4429639 @ $185.00 plus tax
whole assembly was over $500.00

bearing house's didnt have ntn bearing in stock but could order it next day for about $75.00.

trying a substitute bearing same dimensions but different seals and two separate inner races
BCA p/n 510014 . hoping the differences dont cause problems later.
I got this at an automotive store. it was 55.00 to 65.00 depending where you looked.


2nd update:
do not use bca 510014 except in emergency
bearing came apart a couple of times while trying to install it went back together without any problems though. the through bolt will keep parts together after final assembly.
