I've been having trouble locating these two parts (intermediate shaft bearing and seal). Can anyone point me in the right direction here? I have taken apart the front end on this truck multiple times trying to find the right bearing, spent so much time researching and calling dealerships, parts stores, everything. I can find the Seal easy enough, but that bearing doesn't exist or everywhere it does has it labeled incorrectly. I've eaten two intermediate shafts and spent countless hours of frustration chasing down this apparent rabbit hole, does anyone have a link to the part or can teach me how to navigate this parts catalog and where to actually input the part number? I apologize if this reads poorly, I'm not much of a poster, just feel like I'm out of options!
Through TRS forums I found the Dana/Spicer part catalog

The part I am looking for is number #31 on the diagram on page #12.

Then in the Parts Listing it has (2) that directs you to the Variable Parts table

In the Variable Parts Table is where my confusion lies; how do I determine which "Bill Of Material" number refers to my specific axle?

I tried looking on my axle itself and I found 3 codes, but none of them look anything like what's on these tables.
First Code on Passenger Side Intermediate Shaft Tube (closest to differential): KIPP2
Second Code on Passenger Side Intermediate Shaft Tube(closest to CV Axle): 47014
Code on Rear of Differential above Driveshaft connection: MKC 13 46058 REV -BB
I took pictures of these too but they're hard to see/read because of their location.
Thank you for reading, this is my first truck I have owned for over 10 years. I blew it up stupidly 7 years ago and started a restoration/rebuild mid-2020. Since then, I have dialed everything in except this ridiculous front end problem. I've replaced then rebuilt the entire rear end, front end, entire AC system, Cooling System, fuel pump, injectors, rebuilt and welded the entire exhaust system, vacuum lines, camshaft synchronizer, just about anything you can think of. All that's left is this bearing that's kept me grounded for months.
