I have the clutch installed and getting the driveline in. It seems I am missing the metal clamp that holds the carrier bearing to the chassis. Maybe I misplaced it?? Is there a place that sells just the clamp or do I need to get a whole new bearing? Anyone know a part number for either or both? And I am assuming the bearing is pressed on to the driveline?? Anyway, just getting those 2 things done should allow me to drive the bus, FINALLY. | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 . | | .

Suggestions on where I could find that? | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 . | | .

So I need to get the bearing off the shaft and just get it in there as Grigg suggests. Thanks again all.

Went to the back and brought out the right support bracket for me and said have a nice evening. So looks like I'm getting to installe the driveline tomorrow. Yay!!
