Bracket for drive shaft carrier bearing
The previous owner welded the carrier bearing to the bracket that it bolts to and there no longer seem to be any bolt holes for the carrier bearing to attach to even if I was able to cut off the bearing. Does anyone know if there is a replacement bracket that can bolt on where the current bracket is?

Re: Bracket for drive shaft carrier bearing
It sounds like you’re going to need a new cross member.
At the very least, you need to fabricate the mount point. It needs to all be lined up as it was from the factory, or you’ll forever have driveshaft issues |

Look on the parts board, though you have to be a paying member to do that.

Re: Bracket for drive shaft carrier bearing
X2 for pictures. Because the bearing has been welded to the bracket does not mean that it can't be salvaged. Welding is just extra metal and that can be be removed. But I guess it depends on how bad the "weld" is.

Re: Bracket for drive shaft carrier bearing
Thanks for the help so far. Here are photos of the bracket. Let me know if a different angle would be helpful.
I am starting to think that I can just cut of the old bearing strap and grind the bracket till it is smooth but would love y'alls opinions. |
