Swapping out driveshaft support, question?
I need to change my driveshaft center support. I would like to know if the bearing needs to replaced too? I see the bearing and the mount is sold separately. As far as I know the bearing is still good its just the rubber mount that fell apart. Car has 103k miles. Also do I need to press out the rubber mount or does it just slide off? Does the bearing need to come out in order to put on the new rubber mount? I dont want to start dismantling things until I have a plan and the parts on hand.

Anyone have experience with the FEBI Bilstein brand? THE OEM from the dealer cost about $150 wholesale as opposed to FEBI which is less than $40.
