[QUOTE="P, post: 76572, member: 3"] Looky at this thread getting all grown and getting real world informative discussion. Im so proud of you guys I could cry :'( I know the P208 style cast ones fail here and there, I think alot of it has to do with odd angles and so on as well. These things ARE NOT made to have any deflection in them, I mean NONE. I think you get them kicked sideways a little and they get a side load of any sort from the driveline shock and your gonna get troubles. Hell I've been running that big janky over the counter Gm truck stock carrier bearing and while it hasnt "failed" it does vibe like hell ( side loaded since its so large and I cant get it any closer to being in plane with a D300/TH350 ) So I opted for an el-cheapo P208 style which is 2" overall smaller in diameter, that will bring my front shaft so much closer to plane , and possibly ( Ill know shorty, Im in the garage doing this right now actually... ) straighten my front driveline out completely. Im sure if I had a smaller upper driveshaft like the "canyon crawler" style that JE Reel sells ( props to Scott from Scotts4x4 on that blurb ) it would be completely inline the way my chassis and drivetrain is laid out. Let me finish up and Ill let you know how I fair with this version of the experiment..... Either way, great information from everyone here. Good post fellar's thumb.gif [/QUOTE]
