I like Oreileys and their parts but the carrier bearing they had looked really cheap. I don't remember the brand name of it but that was all they had in stock so I went to Advance Auto and they had a Moog for like 10 bucks more so I went with them. You could tell it was much better quality and it weighed twice as much. That's been over 2 years and no probs. I'd like to know if anyone had found greasable units ?
Youll have to take it to a shop. Or put the drive shaft in a freezer and slightly heat the bearing. It should slide on most of the way, have a pipe ready that fits on the bearing and tap it on the rest of the way
Timkens come stock on Jeeps and that's all I'll use anymore. I've had bad luck with off brand hubs and misc transfer case/differential bearings. The Timken last much more better, plus the price is right.
Same thing with ball joints, all I'll ever use is Spicer. Moog lately is crap.
Definitely. And around here the only place that has a good selection of Spicer is a Six States Distributors. Check to see if there's one in your area.
