Detailed Description

Westar DS-6071 is a center support bearing assembly for the driveline, helping stabilize the driveshaft and maintain proper alignment under load. It is engineered for vehicles that require a 40 mm bearing I.D. and, on many applications, a U-shaped bracket or housing design. This makes it a practical replacement choice for trucks and SUVs that show driveline vibration, support wear, or noise from the center bearing area.

Fitment includes 2008-2019 GMC Sierra 1500, 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2008-2012 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2004-2015 Nissan TITAN, 2005-2012 Nissan Frontier, 2004-2006 Dodge Ram 1500, and other listed GMC Sierra, Silverado HD, Ram HD, and Dakota applications. Part number DS-6071 is also cross-referenced to Timken HB4010A.
