D35 Auburn Ected HELP!!!! Bearings??!!

[59Bisquik]

I am installing an Auburn Ected in my Dana 35 with 27 spline axles. I got a D35 rebuild kit and starting assembling when I found out that the carrier bearings wont fit on the Auburn Carrier. They are two small!! Anybody else have this problem? I see on the Auburn website they list the bearings that must be used with thier carriers, But the D30 and D35 are new and not listed! What bearing numbers did you guys use???

Anybody using a Auburn Ected?

I should find out tommorow when I talk to Auburn. Im sure it just uses a different bearing, but it would of been nice of them to tell you when you order it!

I realize the Ected is new for the D35....Just thought if anybody had one..might be here!

Thanks

I spoke with Auburn this morning...Just as I thought! Special bearings for this unit....same deal with some of the Eatons and Detroits too! Sure would of been nice for them to mention that!

Good heads up for you guys thinking of installing an Ected in your Dana 35's!!
