Toyota 2016-23 Tacoma Center Support Bearing

This component holds the middle of your two-piece driveshaft in place, and because it sits low under the truck, it’s constantly bombarded by road salt, mud from the trails, and the literal ups and downs of off-road life.

The Toyota Genuine Center Support Bearing is the factory-spec solution to restore that smooth Toyota power delivery. While there are many aftermarket options, we find that the OEM Toyota bearing offers the most consistent rubber density, which is crucial for damping the specific harmonic vibrations inherent to the Tacoma’s drivetrain.

Key Features

• Vibration Dampening: Engineered with high-quality factory rubber to absorb driveline harmonics and eliminate take-off shudder.
• Precision Alignment: Ensures your multi-piece driveshaft stays perfectly indexed, preventing premature wear on your U-joints and transmission seals.
• Heavy-Duty Housing: Features a rugged steel bracket designed to bolt directly to your Tacoma's frame with zero modifications.
• Sealed for the Elements: The internal bearing is high-sealed to protect against dust and dirt.
• OEM Reliability: Don't risk driveline drone with cheap knock-offs; stick with the part Toyota’s engineers designed for this specific torque load.

What’s Included

• (1) Genuine Toyota Center Support Bearing (Carrier Bearing) Assembly
• Integrated high-quality rubber insulator and steel mounting bracket

Pro Tip: If you’ve recently installed a suspension lift kit, your driveshaft angles have changed, which puts extra stress on this bearing. If you're replacing a failed bearing on a lifted truck, we highly recommend adding a Carrier Bearing Drop Kit at the same time. This simple spacer kit helps realign the driveshaft and significantly extends the life of your new bearing.
