carrier bearing drop necessary for such a mild lift?

 

For the $20 bucks I'd rather have it on hand to install if there's vibes. Washers also work. When I first we leveled mine and had an aal I needed it. That was only 1.5".

This was on my truck, ymmv

 

I’m out of massachusetts

 

Where can I get this carrier bearing drop

Double check what you bought first. Looks like the kit you bought has a carrier bearing drop with it.

 

Ordered the carrier bearing

 

Are you saying it comes with the drop or I need it?

 

Bottom of the “included” list says “carrier bearing x 2”.

 

I got the build puls carrier bearing drop I hope this is enough to make my ride stable

 

Do I need the needle bearing too? Where do I get this?

 

Carrier bearing drop is just a couple small plates and longer bolts, FYI.

 

A 2” lift may or may not cause vibes due to side loading on the needle bearing. You can buy a replacement bushing from ECGS that will eliminate the vibes, most shops can install. They sell a replacement seal as well.

 

I can’t find it on their website can you send me a link?

Is this the bushing? Do I need the install and removal tool also?

That’s it, you may want to buy the seal too.

You only need the install tool if you’re installing it yourself. Shops have generic bearing pullers. If you’re doing it yourself and installing the seal, there’s also a seal install tool.

Check the TW marketplace, folks have been selling the whole kit lately.

 

Can you link me to the correct seal please

 

Go to the link you posted and then click on “Configure Item” below the bushing. There are some add-on options, the axle seal is there.
