!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Support Bearing PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm am having a huge issue i went to go do all of my drive shaft u joints this morning ( front and rear shafts because i had a bad one in the front shats and the support bearing was getting sloppy and the u-joint behind it had a small squeak ) But now i cannot find the support bearing anywhere! FML lol i did find a thread thru a Google search that had a Spicer part number ( first one is 211963-1x and 211848-1x ) now i don't know witch one is the correct one and cannot find anything telling me how to tell witch one mine is. I'm kinda screwed cause the parts stores have nothing that looks any thing like it ! and my truck is my DD. i have been to Autozone Advanced PepBoys and O'riley None are right not even close they look like they go on an s10 or something. Napa said they have one but it's 80 dollars and could make it there befor they closed today ( Sunday ) Any Help on if the NAPA one is right or a P/N would be greatly Appreciated!!!!!!!! :confused013:

Oh and my front drive shaft is screwed to cause of the double cardan joint is annihilated (go figure right) any ideas on getting a new joint or has anyone ever had luck with the rebuild kits on them

I've seen the 80 dollar one from Napa .... It was correct for my truck that's in mi Sig .... Worse case scenario call the stealership :confused013:

So the Napa one is that same style that came off of my truck and looks like the one from Spicer that i saw online ( also a spicer one that came off of truck)

yes the one I had seen from napa was correct. I would say if you are in doubt call the stealership and have them give you the oe part number then call back napa or somewhere and have them cross reference the part number to be sure that it is correct. :thumbsup:

Update just got it support bearing done at Napa and pressed on for $118 now have to go to a machine shop in town to getmy CV rebuilt cause I have never done that rebuild kit thing have always replaced but guy here looked at mine and said it could be rebuilt I know there suppose to be balanced after there done too and local shop said 25 in parts 60 in labor with balance

I have never heard of balancing a driveshaft after a u-joint replacement?...and also it isnt hard to rebuild a double cardigan joint. Its just two u-joints and a ball and socket.

as long as you keep the two shafts oriented the same as when it was when it got balance initially. I bought a carrier bearing from Advance Auto Parts for a 1500 I think they have the ones for 2500 too.
