Drive shaft and trailing arm question
 

First of all, how do you replace the bushings on the trailing arms? They are out of the truck. Secondly, how do you take the drive shaft apart at the carrier bearing?

I used a ball joint press to change out the bushings and for the drive shaft remove the ujoint and remove the bolt that's in the center of the shaft.

I used a torch to remove my trailing arm bushings. Which carrier bearing do you have?

first off if you live near an autozone take advandage of their tool lending program. Follow this link for overhaul of driveshaft. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=171772 I don't know why the pictures don't show up anymore, but at least you can read through it....shame though because it was a very informative write up with great photos on driveshaft overhaul...maybe something the admins can fix......Rick

Wish it had pic too. I need to replace my carrier bearing. Any one have a part number for the carrier bearing for a 2 piece drive shaft?
