Anyone know where to buy a replacement bearing that sits between the box and diff on a Sierra cossie, it is a support bearing after the donut.

I think mine is worn and has some play in it....

And what is it called?

 

if its the same or similer to the 2wd centre bearings i think there supposed to have a bit as long as theres no vibration with it i could be wrong mine the same im not going to do nothing till it starts vibrating

 

Thanks, mine does have some vibration and a clock when you pull away sometimes, when I got it it had come off a Sierra that had been broken and the whole prop was rebuilt as it was worn, I can pull it apart by hand so it needs replacing. Would like brand new if can get one.

 

Replaced mine a year or so back. Pretty sure I used this one from Graham goode. Had it fitted by a driveshaft specialist here in NZ so not sure what's involved in fitting.

I have ordered from Graham Goode and will get that on there...many thanks. I think it will be a simple DIY job but if not will pop in to prop shaft services

 

hello there david me and a freind are trying to trace a chap from nz hes called philip oliver is or was married to angy they came from hamilton my freind used to exsport sierra cosworths to him in the 1990 to about 2000 he must have sent twenty 3dr&saffs down there he became a very good freind but all of a sudden lost contact with us ive been in touch with a cossie tunner about an hour away from hamalton but they no nothing of him he would be about fifty we fear the worst because theres no reason for philip not to keep in touch if you could put the word about that would be great

 

i didnt realise you could get the bearing seperate but thinking about it some one said to me recently you can get the hole thing referbed for about two hundred i dont no if thats right best of checking your u j joints on the shaft there more likely two cause vibration

 

All my uj s are brand new, as are the props and all balanced. I think it is the centre bearing or just needs uprated gear box mount so trying that too

I have not heard of him, and a quick search of the white pages (phone book) does not give any hits. I am from Auckland which is also about an hour from Hamilton. I will ask at the next RSOC meeting if anyone has heard of him.
