I don’t know who makes the bushings for the vendors ,l got this one from Jim Carter truck parts ,and was prepared to make a few adjustments and it did go in smoothly but wasn’t prepared for the driveshaft to not move or the yoke not to fit in .I did get the driveshaft to move by using a screwdriver to pry on the ring gear .I have two bushings for the newer tube as I was going to first change the bushing then found out the bearing behind the pinion was chipped and some bits were in the bottom so I ordered the 355 gears and install kit .That was last spring and being a Canadian truck I decided to use the older tube I found but I guess back to plan A .I think these parts being so old and not being able to get them right apart to check it is a crap shoot.I am thinking it would work out to cut the tube all around and make a welded flange that you can bolt on and off to change these parts .
