Well I am in the process of changing my front passenger axle seal. When I took off the CAD section, there were peices of hard plastic floating around. After careful inspection, it was from teh axle bushing. Tried to get one from a parts store that orders wholesale for the dealerships. They told me that the peice was on back order. Went to the Dana website and found a local place that specializes on Dana axles. The plastic bushing has been replaced with a bearing. Just wanted to share this with everyone. It was in a spicer box with the following number #565985. got the old one out and pressed in the bearing and it fit perfect. Hope this helps someone out there.

 

thanks for the info

 

I wonder what years had a plastic bushing? My truck has a bearing.
