I had to replace a passenger side u-joint with no warning, and didn't have time to get these bushings and bearings. I'm going to buy a set and have them for a rainy day. I found this 99-01 dana 44 diagram and parts list. d44 is page 12
http://www2.dana.com/pdf/X510-5DSD.pdf

btw, i used Precision 377 super strength greasable from napa, $29 each. very nice joint. it had crappy GMB/Japan joints from prev owner. they were completely dry and rusty and the needles were worn out flat. also, i have no slingers on the end of the axle tubes, and they were full of oily, dirty sand from coastal south carolina. my trucks previous life.

Anyone have any links and prices ?
Anyone know dealer pricing ?

riversidegear has them for the ridiculous price of $55 for bushing, bearing, and right side seal. they have slingers for $15 each

 

Just call Dan at Quad4x4

 

ok, for future reference, the large inner bushing (50429) and the inner cage bearing (566008) are interchangeable. i removed the worn out stock bushing from my 01, and replaced it with the bearing. i tapped it out from the driver side, using a 6' 2x2. i tapped in the new bearing, from the passenger side, using a 17 or 19 mm socket, and a short pipe. cad was open, so i was holding it there.

the bushings were probably NOT my problem. the real problem was burrs on the inner axle splines. i filed those out smooth with a flat file.

my collar engagement is now much better.

 

Advance auto parts b5020 and 710241 they both say front interm shaft spicer 44 do these look correct?

 

710241 sounds correct for the seal. you can't go by the picture, as Advance uses stock pictures rather than actual one's.

needle bearing - probably. it has no dimensions on the chart.
B5020 nor B-5020 show up in the National chart.
