Excellent. Glad to hear you got it to an expert. Now if the bearing holds up we'll know for sure.

Guys, would you believe it failed again at 77000 miles, again after a 12 hour haul.

BTW, the trick to getting the old bearing off is using a air hammer.

Did you ever have the driveshaft pulled and checked for balance and straightness? Those support "bearings" are supposed to and known to last a long time.
