it was a damn mess...

UPDATE:
No one carries the carrier bearing size i need ended up going to some little mom and pop shop and they had it for 20 bucks....Also no one has the pressure tool to pop the carrier bearing off and we bent out a few wrenches trying to get it off....Finally some little no name garage charged me only 25 bucks to pop it off and put the new one....Were putting it on now hopefully everything goes smooth

Thanks to everyone that helped me out yall are great!!!

and thanks for my sticker steve lol ill have to rock the white one till i can get a hot pink one made!

I'm surprised Clark's didn't have it.

At least you didn't have to get it at the dealership.

I used to go to Haps all the time when I lived off of Cherry and Del Amo. They're good people.

Come on man, just jerkin your chain a bit. I knew she had to feelers that did not know crap working on her truck. I gave them tips, like watch the cups on the open end. Make sure they don't come off. I could just imagine them with all the needle bearings in there hand guessing what to do. Just glad she is done. Man that was a lot of work just talking her through it.

Yeah thanks for that Serg it was a huge help!! Also to steve who actually spotted my problem so my guys could work on it!! And just an input, I said from minute one i have no mechanical experience, i would have been in my guys way....But that's that. I guess thanks for watching Bob?

ANYWAYS....To all who actually helped out with the job you guys are invaluable!!

And yeah spec, everyone carried the 1.3 smaller carrier bearing but not the 1.6 pain in the butt to find...

But it's all done and my truck feels alotttt better!!
