Differences between divreshaft bearings and mounts... 700

Hello to all,

I wanted to know what is the differences between the driveshaft supports bearing from Volvo, IPD and Scantech. I can't understand why there's such a difference in pricing: Volvo part 160$CDN, Scantech 60$CDN and IPD (aprox) 84$CDN.

Also, would changing the driveshaft bearing and the transmission output shaft bushing at the same time (doing it myself) too much to chew?

Thanks for everyones help!

shouldn't be too much to chew if you get the IPD special tool for pulling the trans bushing.

As for the driveshaft center bearing/mount....I don't know how hard it is to get the new bearing on to just the right depth...special volvo tool and supposedly a .1mm tolerance??

Depends on if you decide to replace the tailpiece gasket. That can take a long time to clean off the tranny, and I think I'm not gonna do it next time, provided the old one doesn't rip.

Tell me the bearing isn't a bad job; I've never had the pleasure.
