Dana Spicer Drive Shaft Center Support Bearing

Dana Spicer Drive Shaft Center Support Bearings: OEM Engineering for Every Drivetrain

When a two-piece driveshaft is spinning at highway speeds, the center support bearing is the only thing standing between a smooth ride and a dangerous vibration. Dana Spicer has been engineering drivetrain components since 1904, and their drive shaft center support bearings reflect over a century of accumulated know-how. For more than a century, the Spicer name has built a legacy of success with quality drivetrain solutions, and genuine Spicer products are manufactured to the same high standards as original equipment — because in most cases, they are OEM parts.

The Spicer Dura-Tune® Advantage

Dana Spicer's flagship center bearing line is the Spicer® Dura-Tune® family. The Dura-Tune family of self-aligning center bearing assemblies is engineered for durability and tuned to provide industry-leading powertrain vibration isolation and dampening, using advanced-technology elastomer to address noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) levels associated with higher drivetrain torque stresses and vibration frequencies. This is especially critical on modern trucks where engine downspeeding and chassis lightweighting introduce unique vibration signatures that standard bearings simply aren't designed to handle.

The Dura-Tune's patented design helps to ensure proper installation and alignment throughout the life of the vehicle, and the new design also provides a more user-friendly installation, further reducing the possibility of future alignment-based issues. Innovative design provides optimal alignment within +/- 10 degrees, and a factory-sealed bearing combined with a double-lip seal decreases contamination, reduces maintenance demands, and extends service life.

Spicer Select® for All-Makes Coverage

Not every application calls for a Dura-Tune assembly, and Dana Spicer covers the full spectrum with their Spicer Select® line. Spicer Select® all-makes drivetrain parts by Dana are built for older vehicles that still have an important job to do, providing quality-built all-makes parts backed by the Dana name, designed for exceptional fit and easy installation to maximize uptime. Commercial vehicle center bearings from Spicer Select offer powertrain vibration isolation and dampening with easy installation, and are engineered to maintain a proper driveline angle, contributing to maximized component life and reduced contamination.

Wide Application Coverage

Dana Spicer center support bearings span a broad range of driveshaft series and vehicle types. The lineup includes heavy-duty options for the 1760/1810 series driveshafts used in commercial trucks , as well as light-truck fitments such as the Dana Spicer 210370-1X, which fits Chevy and GMC two-piece driveshaft trucks in both 2WD and 4WD configurations. The expanded Dura-Tune family now also includes Dura-Tune Lite, available for the SPL® 350 Lite and SPL® 250 Lite driveshafts. This breadth of coverage means whether you drive a daily commuter pickup, a weekend off-road rig, or a commercial hauler, there is a genuine Spicer center bearing engineered specifically for your driveline.

Why Choose Genuine Spicer?

Dana's design, engineering, testing, and manufacturing processes all work in conjunction with one another to ensure unparalleled performance that non-genuine parts simply cannot deliver. For anyone dealing with driveline vibration, premature bearing wear, or a worn-out hanger bearing on a two-piece shaft, fitting a genuine Spicer center support bearing is the most reliable path back to a quiet, aligned, long-lasting drivetrain.
