Re: New Support Bearin
That looks like the one in my '67 C-20 with a granny 4 speed.

Re: New Support Bearin
Apart from the difference in appearance, are the mounting centers the same?

Re: New Support Bearin
the mounts to the frame seem to be correct, im more worried about where the bearing itself sits. cause the orginal one sits on the driveshaft while the new one looks like it needs to be where the splines are. would i have to get the end of the front driveshaft changed to make it work? i just dont want to have to spend much money on it cause i am short on cash at the moment

Re: New Support Bearin
All the one I have seen look like your new one. Maybe the old one was replaced and not exactly correct.

Re: New Support Bearin
Sameyrasmea72, what are those widgets under your tranny mount that the green arrows are pointing to?

Re: New Support Bearin
Sorry about this pic, I used it awhile back to show somebody something else. Those are used on BB trucks w/th400 and are used to hold the e-cable out of the way of the driveshaft. (AS FAR AS I CAN TELL)
