Re: Trans Prob/Axles/Carrier Bearing?

Replace your axle, no biggie. You have two carrier bearings on the driveshaft, both wear out and will thump under hard acceleration. The easy fix it to pump them full of Window Weld but you need to unbolt them from the chassis so the weight of the driveshaft doesn't offset it. If you're talking about the carrier bearing on the driver's side axle, they don't wear out that I know of, if it did, it's the type of bearing that would howl like a wheel bearing. Stock bolts should be fine for a Fidanza if I remember correctly. I always measure the remaining thread penetration when putting on a different flywheel, just in case.
