the dude told me, "if you had called 30 minutes ago, i would overnite them to ya, since you are great customer", i said "30 minutes ago, i was under this damn truck, cussing your dumbass". i should have enough time, everything else is done, im reusing my same shims/spacers, since im keeping my3.73's, makes for a pretty simple install.

Every thread on here asking about a true trac says to go to RONS. Best price and right bearings.

However I think Tyler has always had to reuse the stock pinion bearing because the one in the master install kit is always smaller???
He'll have to chime in on that one as I'm not sure.

When I bought mine, they sent me the wrong bearings too. You'd think they would learn. I guess not. That was several years ago, I wonder how many others have gotten the wrong ones....I had a shop do mine, ended up finding the correct bearings at NAPA.

I believe the correct part number via NAPAonline is #BGRBR42. I did the search and clicked on the link for "Differential Bearing - Rear Axle" and it shows a part for the "front axle". Did a search for a 2WD truck, lol. Not sure how much help that is...here's a link to my search though...if it shows up. LINK
