WOW, how did it just fall off? That's not good for the bearing. I'd look at the junk yard. That's gonna be your cheapest bet. I know the dealer has them and I think I've seen them on eBay. Also emsoffroad sells used axle shafts, thru could probaly round one up for you.

yea i tried to go to all the parts stores in town, but the drawback to a small town is that there is only 3 in town and none of them had it so i checked the one junkyard in town and they only had a 2wd dodge so i went to my machanic and asked him and he gave me the number to the nearest dodge dealership, but they didnt even have it in stock they had to order it, so tomorrow i get to drive my friends car to the dealership thats 45 mins away to pay 38 dollars for the nut because i need my truck on friday to start my new job
