[@noway7476]

You have a smooth baritone fer narration, a natural teacher. Whatever you're doing, keep doing it. Least, that is this subscriber's opinion

[@orlandoortiz7512]

Thanks for your insight and knowledge! Men like you are a necessity! Thank you and God bless!

[@Glennfix]

I appreciate that

[@8.3leader15]

Thanks for the great video! Looking forward to more dodge content in my future. Hard to find straightforward stuff for the long box dodge heavy duties. Much appreciated

[@Glennfix]

Glad it was helpful!

[@epifaniocortez8150]

Thx 4 the advice! You helped me quite a bit... 😆 I have a few shortcuts, but all in all I referred to your video. Thx again, keep up the good 👍 lessons...

[@WingoTribe704]

Should I replace the drive shaft as well? I have a 2020 RAM 1500 rear wheel drive

[@Glennfix]

Not unless the drive shaft id damaged.

[@Hergmann27]

Glen the man🤙 great video, tackling my support bearing this afternoon

[@Glennfix]

Good luck!

[@Hergmann27]

It sure was a pain in the ass getting the old one off. Eventually got it off with an air ratchet

[@josephbonilla5910]

Moog very good suspension parts thanks for sharing sir 👍

[@adrianbenavides6186]

Great stuff Very thorough, very informative

[@Glennfix]

Glad it was helpful!

[@rusthemi936]

Exactly what I was looking for. Earned yourself a Subscription

[@janbastein7355]

I drilled and tapped it for a zerk! Good Video!

[@agartin1]

1-1/4 pipe with the threads sanded about half off works beautifully to drive it back on.

[@masonsorandom3381]

How did you get the bolts out for the carrier bearing they are just spinning for me

[@Glennfix]

They have nuts on top that you have to hold

[@rascal0175]

Heads up with Dallas Dodge. They just charged me full retail for a carrier bearing. Discount is around $170. Dallas charged $247.

[@bobjohns7595]

Really would've liked to see the actual work being done... especially the cutting off of the old bearing.

[@D-train69]

Good video much information included with much knowledge, Thanks. Hay my support that holds the center bearing seems weak to me how was yours did you beef it up with extra steal????

[@Glennfix]

My support seemed strong. You may want to check for rust and replace if needed. There is no torque on it it just holds up the driveshaft. All the torque from the engine is in the driveshaft. So it dose not have to be real strong.

[@neilschafer3669]

Hopefully my 2017 goes this smooth wish u were closer to I dia a

[@ryanmcgurk4185]

Do you have part number for the u joint

[@solartonytony5868]

my bearing is good, solid, no noise, no wobble, rubber is crumbly ...can the rubber be replaced only, take it out, get new one from new bearing, make a split cut, and install ?

[@Glennfix]

I would not try. If the rubber is bad the bearing is not far behind.

[@solartonytony5868]

thx@@Glennfix ..will go for it ...there's no slack or noise ...calling dodge dallas monday ... replace u-joints also everywhere too ? front, center & rear ? ... i think so ... could not find moog center bearing for my dodge ram 50 ...will go with skf or similar, what do you recommend ?

[@Glennfix]

@@solartonytony5868 I think Dodge uses Moog. I ordered most of the things from Dallas Dodge on the internet. That is what I like to do, just replace everything. Like the front end, if one part goes bad, the others are coming soon. Every time, you need to do about the same amount of work to fix it.

[@solartonytony5868]

thx @@Glennfix ... dodge dallas computer doesn't go that far ...it's an 83' ...will have to go with one of the autoparts shops ... any brand recommendations for quality parts other than moog ?

[@Glennfix]

@@solartonytony5868 "Timken" makes good quality bearings.

[@dalegettings2244]

I checked your price it is $214 on Rock Auto with the same part number 5093379AD. On DCJR it is $339.

[@runthatreadeth]

does the retainer go all the way in the bearing? and does the bearing butt up against the washer?

[@Glennfix]

look at the video 7:20 minutes you can see how it goes.

[@JTG1245]

Great video

[@Glennfix]

Thanks!

[@lilterryize]

Where did you get the center support bearing from?

[@Glennfix]

I got it from Dodge, but there is a Dodge dealer close to where I live but they want too much money for their parts. If I need a part from Dodge I order it from www.dallasdodge.net/ they have good prices and fast shipping.

[@davidd.foxell4271]

Dam glad I didn't try to tear mine apart bcuz I don't got the since to do that kind of stuff

[@slvrwrx25]

Thank you

[@rdub1314]

I just wanted to point out that some parts you can get away with buying from a dealership. Once you start getting into things like coil packs they will overcharge you by 400%. Be careful

[@4AM_DJ]

Cutting wheels always save the day

[@randydecker1675]

Why don't you show the actual process???

[@congettalalicata2082]

Thank you none of these videos show the actual shit being done

[@mitchellandrew3318]

​@@congettalalicata2082It's a legit easy process.....

[@robcarney2534]

Thanks!

[@Glennfix]

No problem!

[@Wongigigi]

Go to solid 1 piece driveshaft.

[@timothypfalzgraf7758]

He sad, "Worshington DC"...thats how I know that he's actually from there.

[@brianhind6149]

The Blue coating is a synthetic permanent lubrication & no grease is required is my understanding.

[@jfredmuggs56]

1998 Dodge 2500. Today. That "permanent" lubrication made the two shafts seize to each other. Had to beat them apart. Nearly ruined the WEAK yoke!

[@user-wz5sy1fp6x]

Nice dirty hands on new clean u-joint journals! Glad your not working on my truck!

[@lennykrapitz4794]

Spicer-Great quality Moog-Hot garbage Moog use to be reputable, their product quality has plummeted in the past 4-5 years. Better off buy house brands. Same shit, half the cost. Simply put, all you pay for is the name, now.

YOU SHOULD CLEAN EVERYTHING FIRST. THEN USE ONLY OEM SPICER PARTS. THEN USE A PRESS TO REMOVE AND REPLACE ALL THE PARTS.
