Carrier bearing

[cmann250]

Everything I have found is too small. Does anyone have a part number that they know works? This is for an '89 automatic 2wd. I can't fit the bearing over the splines. It is just a little bit too small, i could make it fit with a BFH, but i don't want to screw up

I found part number 6038 from O'Reilly's is what I needed. Advance has it too, under the same part number, but its more expensive there.

1.5748" inside diameter is for a diesel, 1.378" ID is for a gasser. It didn't make any difference if I specified diesel, 1 ton, whatever, I couldn't get AutoZone or NAPA to give me the right part online. Calling would do no good around these parts

Don't make my mistake

There is a number problem in a lot of the parts places. It lists the right bearing, but it's the smaller one. Caleb is correct, you need to make sure you get the 1.57" ID bearing not the 1.37 one.
I got the correct one the last time I changed mine in the fall of '10. Carquest number B-HB99107A. I googled it and got 2 hits off chevy forums about the wrong size. There is another number they used, HB88508A for the 1.57 bearing.
I added this info and numbers to help anybody in the future, if the search works.

Pete, Did ya also add this info into the "Parts Number" thread here on the forum?

Just kidding Pete

No argument here Caleb! And thanks for putting it over there, I forgot to do it before I was done typing that post.
