If we don't look out for eachother nobody will!
Ok, 37 miles of eastern Nevada on I80 is no joke. Just pulled my second hill in second gear.
I'm at the top letting my truck recover.
My carrier bearing is reading 121* and my diff is 150* ambient is around 60-65*
I'll check again at my next stop.

Rich I was wondering if you have checked the slip joint splines? Have you checked the grease? Do you see any signs of wear on the splines? I have seen where the splines in slip joint hang up and things will hang up every now and then and it feels like a carrier bearing. That and when was the last time you checked the rear diff outer axle bearing for end play and adjust?

I took the shim out after it was a fail.
The whole rear end is new, and riding about 145 degrees.
The driveline is rebuilt and trued - and balanced two more times in search of this issue. I have oily stuff spinning out and splattering the mount for the carrier bearing - it's just a thin coat, but it's unnerving. I never get down to 120 degrees F (75 degrees ambient today), and I used to see closer to 100 degrees.
I tried to rep you Frank and Brad, but I have to spread them.

Tugly I hope you have warranty Dudzooka round to do a defective exchange on the carrier. LOL
You could always ratchet strap yourself under the truck, have the Wife go for a couple mile spin in stinky.
I think I hurt me wife's feeling when I had a friend come over to drive mine in the driveway. I was underneath on a creeper. LOL
She said WHAT! YOU DON"T TRUST ME? LOL
I says I cant hear ya honey, your hair looks great!

I have a quart of the special blue ford slip shaft grease in my toolbox. I need to order that dang boot.
Rich, I used a Timken carrier bearing. They make good stuff.
