Yes, but won't that cause grabing at a stop while in gear?
I know on our nissan work rigs, 2wd that we have owned and used for 20years, the bearings always fail.
My last pickup started to do a few odd things than whammmo, lost main bearing. There was really no ware just metal fatigue on the keeper.
Had another one do similar. OUt on the freeway no problems, came off the ramp and could not get it out of 5th gear!!
It's just that I would expect that It would grab at an idel as well as moving.
How come no one esle is chiming in hear while I stumble all over??
I can just see the giggleing in the back ground.
