Re: Drive shaft support bearing breaking.

The panhard bar is a give away. If I remember right with leaf springs there is an alingment pin in the center of the leaf where the axle perch sits on to aline. Im just wondering if they welded on leaf spring perches without checking the pinion angle.

I did away with that style drive shaft and bearing on my longbed 1/2 ton. I used a complete 3/4 ton set up after having driveshaft shortened and balanced. I did have to use an adaptor ujoint at the rear end, since a 3/4 ton uses a dana 60 larger pinion.
