Question Carrier Bearing

When I got my truck the carrier bearing was broken and held with about 1/2 roll of bailing wire. Now, about 6-8k miles later, I started hearing a strange noise and I looked and it is partway broken again. Are they supposed to last any longer than that? If not, what would the best way to change it? I am thinking a 3/4 ton driveshaft with the better braring might be a good idea. Also, is it safe to drive it like this? I need to take it on a 3 hour trip and I don't know if it will be ok with the cracked carrier bearing or not.
