lwb carrier bearing?

Any tips on pinion angle or ways to relieve stress on the carrier bearing? I have a 72 lwb, bags, 2 inch blocks, home made notch. Thanks Greg

I take it that you got the little weak one right. you can take the pop rivits out and turn it around make some braces. get some degree shims to put under the axle or swap over to the stonger ones you.ll need the bracket and all like this
