    Anyone know a good place to order a one piece drive shaft, preferably in Ontario?
    Truck's carrier bearing was replaced 1 year ago before I got it, and now needs replacing again. Want to end this before I buy another cb.

    I smashed it and they build me new one(I did that twice), it’s called re-sleeve.

    Thanks Norilsk. I’ll see if there’s someone in North Bay that can do this, but glad to see I I don’t have to order from states.

    Did you get a Dana/Spicer carrier bearing or a no-name one?

    I'm asking because a one-piece driveshaft is more likely to get vibes at higher speeds. It isn't a perfect solution by any means.

    Ah, good to know. I thought the one piece was a cure all.
    Not sure what carrier bearing I got, was done to safety the truck before I bought it. I added spacers to straighten the shafts.

    Worst case scenario you could have your 2 piece rebuilt and have the ujoint behind the carrier bearing replaced with a double cardan joint instead. Right now I'm running a 1 piece but I plan on getting my factory shaft rebuilt in case I need to reinstall it whenever I get my shitbox regeares

    My first GEN (short reg cab 103 “ wheelbase) does not have a carrier bearing and a stock one piece rear driveshaft with cardan joint behind transmission with three grease zerks.
