M46 transmission / power train noise - Diagnosis anywone? 200 1982

It supports the rear end of the Front D-shaft half. It's encased in a large rubber cushion (bushing), which is held in place by a bracket bolted to the floor structure.

Replacement involves removing and separating the 2 halves of the shaft so the old bearing can be pressed off, and the new one pressed on.

The Bentley 240 manual has a good write-up and pictures. The Haynes is OK too. Both manuals say that the old bearing can be driven off with a "drift" and hammer -- and the new one tapped back on. I did one that way once.
