Dodge Dakota Driveshaft Center Support Bearing

The function of the Dodge Dakota Driveshaft Center Support Bearing is to keep the two-piece propeller shaft from vibrating. On many Dodge pickups such as the Dakota, the Driveshaft Center Support Bearing bolts to the chassis midway along the hollow tube in a two-piece shaft arrangement. This allows the front and rear sections to rotate at the same speed while moving with suspension travel. The Driveshaft Center Support Bearing prevents clunks, shudder, and premature joint wear by anchoring the front section and having a rubber-isolated sealed bearing. It absorbs road shocks and keeps the U-joints running at proper angles across the Dodge range. The early Dakota generations applied a simple pressed-in bearing with a thick elastomer cushion, while later Dodge models got an upgraded Driveshaft Center Support Bearing with refined rubber density that damps high-speed vibration better. Although both the earlier push-in style and later bolt-on style of the Driveshaft Center Support Bearing share the same mounting bracket and overall goal, the latter type is more heat crack resistant and will last longer under four-wheel-drive angles. This makes the later type the better replacement whenever a Dakota shows groans or wobble from the Driveshaft Center Support Bearing.
