Prop shaft center bearing

#1 by Marty03 , Tue Nov 13, 2018 10:53 pm

Can anyone please tell me the thickness of the packing pieces needed when fitting the Millners bearing kit?

I had mine done by a local garage (as I didn't have the time) and they just swapped out the old for new bearing. I have a squeeking noise coming from under the truck and was thinking this may be the result of not fitting any spacers to replicate the same angle of the prop shaft.

By the way, all the UJ's were replaced at the same time.

Thanks fella’s, I was thinking about 5mm but needed to check.

Will I have to check for any damage resulting from driving without the spacers?

Just measured them - they're more like 8mm to me unless my eyesight is going...
