These fkrs caused me a major headache with my BF, sold me the "right " centre bearing, but I had to "make" it fit (should've sent it back) only to find the car had a slight vib at 60km/hr. After taking the car to ford for them to do their "black magic " on car balance trick it was still crap... They then took the shaft to Hard spicer here in Adelaide, where I had to pay them to put the "right" bearing on the shaft , then back to ford for more black magic. Still was wrong, so the shaft went back to Hardy only for them to admit they didn't balance it properly. Non of it was Fords fault, so I had to cough up for the 2 doses of back magic even though I highly doubt it makes any difference if the shaft is correctly assembled and balanced in the first place...fk I don't miss that B series, I had so much bad with it Edited 21/06/17 01:57 AM by Ale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What bearing are you looking at? Tailshaft Center Bearing. I now know I need 30mm ID coz its a uni joint shaft but not sure if need 11mm or 25mm offset center height. Go on Hardy Spicer website - Center Bearings - Ford and you will see there is 4 options for FG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more of a straight line between the rear of the box and the diff the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some Angluar disparity (3deg is the magic # apparently) prevents the uni's and cv's from wearing in the same path all the time.

We know that uni shaft is 30mm ID and CV shaft is 35mm ID. My best guess is that depends if u have a manual or auto as to needing 11mm or 25mm offset center height. Think I best just pull it out first and go from there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
