Hey everyone, thanks for the advice- my center support bearing had started to sound like a jet before takeoff, but I applied quite a lot of "spray chain lube" to the area, and presto- no more noise after a long test drive. Again, thanks.

    This may work as a temp solution. You may want to plan to replace it. It can take a couple of HRS if you have trouble getting the old bearing off. I believe a gear puller was suggested. I ended up carefully cutting the old one off using an angle grinder and cold chisle. The new one went on great with a correct size pipe placed on the inner race and carefully tapped on.

    Good, I've always said that method works!. But you don't need to spray liberally, you need to keep grease well clear of the rubber. I've always just used a few drops of oil injected behind the plastic seal on the ball race.
