D35 Pinion bearings

[scotts90ranger]

anyone know part numbers? I tried Napa and the only option they have is the full install kit (a good deal for the install kit none the less, but still more than I want to dish out)

my next step is to try the dealer, but I get a whole 15 minute window usually if traffic is good after work...

Thanks for any tips

Got the old bearings out? You can call a bearing shop and give them the part numbers.

i did all this research on the autozone website when i was working there

check out this page

i think your part number is HM88648


some more advice when you actually go to autozone:
1) give the employee the part # you need
2) check the part number yourself BEFORE you leave the store
3) DO NOT BUY ANYTHING THAT SAYS VALUCRAFT ON IT OR HAS TOUCHED A BOX THAT HAS VALUCRAFT WRITTEN ON IT

the bearing by the pinion did NOT want to come off, I DESTROYED the threads trying to use momentum to get the bearing off on my anvil, and the rollers kept falling off, after half an hour of that I got about .060", took it to work to try to use the press and the lip on the bearing grenaded, took it home and tried heating it with my propane torch, still wouldn't budge, took the dremel to it and after getting two slots 90% cut down the thing it finally came off...

yeah, next step was taking what's left to the bearing house near work...

Thanks 88-eddie! those help! outer bearing is fine, it's from an explorer so minimal 4x4 mileage... HM88648 and HM88610 should do it
