Driveline Support Carrier?
"99PSD F350 2WD CC SRW, how much play can there be in the carrier bearing. The bearing itself seems ok, but I can move the drive shaft around inside of the bearing support. I have been getting a vibration that I have not been able to pin point.

Are you talking about play in the bearing, or the play on supporting rubber bracket?
I redid my differential last week and having drive-shaft disconnected I decided to replace the bearing because of crispy rubber as well. The bearing didn't have any play, but 12 years plus 200+k miles made the rubber very weak.
It was about $30 at NAPA. Measure yours going there, since they offer me 2 sizes.
Slapping some grease on the sliding shaft would be advised as well.

The bearing seems to be ok, but there is a fair amount of movement with the support around the bearing. Is the rubber support around the bearing a replaceable item?
