From the information I have, this bearing will NOT fit on the driveshaft you have pictured. Here's what I know:

There were two different carrier bearings available; the one that you have pictured which has the mounting holes in-line with the driveshaft; and the one that I have pictured, that has the mounting holes perpindicular to the drive-shaft. The one that I have pictured is more commonly available due to the fact that it was used through the 90s. The critical diffrenece between the two lies in the bore diameters.

The one you have (carquest part# HB206FF) has a bore diameter of 1.181"

The one I have (carquest part# HB88107A) has a bore diameter of 1.378"

Also, yours has a centerline that is 1.25" taller than the one I have.

Options are:

New yolk on the driveshaft.

Modify the xmember to work for your application. I could send a tab that YOU weld in place.
