Description
This premium propeller shaft (propshaft) center support bearing assembly is engineered to factory original equipment standards to keep multi-piece driveline configurations running true and perfectly balanced. Positioned on a central chassis crossmember between the transmission and the rear differential, this heavy-duty unit securely handles the mid-point layout of the rotational shaft. Constructed with a heavy-gauge steel mounting frame, a high-grade double-lip sealed ball bearing, and a specialized rubber cushion insulator, it isolates raw drivetrain vibrations while absorbing severe engine torque pulses. Replacing a degraded, torn, or noisy center bearing assembly completely remedies structural cabin shuddering during acceleration, low-frequency highway humming, gear change clunks, and premature wear across the universal joints.
Compatible Vehicles
Toyota Fortuner (2006 onwards)
Toyota Hilux 2X4 (2005 onwards)
Toyota Hilux 4X4 (2005 onwards)
Application Note: Engineered as a direct drop-in replacement for rear-wheel-drive (RWD/2X4) and four-wheel-drive (4X4) variants of the legendary Hilux and Fortuner platforms. Prior to separating the multi-piece propshaft for installation, always score alignment index marks along the splines to preserve the factory rotational phasing balance and avoid creating secondary high-speed vibration harmonics.
