- If you are looking for one with a preload pin (1970-1982), please contact us and we should be able to help.
- Very little / Normal wear on the splines.
- We left the bearing on here, it should be good, but you will want to check it before installation and replace if necessary. This listing is primarily focused toward the drive-shaft itself. For your own piece of mind we would replace the bearing, but this is ultimately up to your discretion.
