WOD 1410 Carrier Bearing Shaft Builder Kit
WF03006
The WOD 1410 Carrier Bearing Shaft Builder Kit provides everything needed to build a heavy-duty intermediate shaft for multi-piece driveshaft systems, custom chassis builds, and long-wheelbase off-road vehicles. Built around the proven WOD Single Ended Carrier Bearing and genuine Spicer 1410 driveline components, this kit is designed for builders who need increased strength over a traditional 1350 driveline while maintaining excellent driveline angles and articulation.
Carrier bearing systems are commonly used when driveshaft length, suspension travel, or chassis layout make a traditional one-piece driveshaft impractical. The 1410 series is often considered the ideal driveline platform for serious off-road vehicles because it bridges the gap between 1350 and 1480 components. It offers a substantial increase in torque capacity over a 1350 driveline while maintaining excellent articulation and driveline angle capability. For many one-ton Jeeps, trail buggies, rock crawlers, and Ultra4 race cars, the 1410 series delivers the best overall balance of strength, durability, weight, and serviceability.

Tech Insight
What is a carrier bearing used for?
A carrier bearing supports intermediate driveshaft sections in multi-piece driveline systems. It helps reduce shaft whip, control vibration, and improve driveline stability.
When do I need a carrier bearing system?
Carrier bearings are commonly used in long wheelbase vehicles, custom chassis builds, rear-engine vehicles, Ultra4 cars, and driveline systems where a single-piece driveshaft is not practical.
Why choose a 1410 carrier bearing system?
The 1410 series offers an excellent balance of strength, driveline angle capability, and serviceability. It is often considered the ideal choice for one-ton Jeeps, rock crawlers, trail buggies, and Ultra4 race cars.
What driveshaft components work with this kit?
This kit is designed to work with WOD 1410 Driveshaft Builder Kits, Spicer 1410 Universal Joint & U-Bolt Kit, Spicer 1410 Yoke 1.5" x 10 Spline, and other 1410 driveline components.
Is this kit assembled and ready to install?
No. This is a DIY builder kit intended for experienced fabricators. Welding, tube cutting, fitment, assembly, and final installation are required.
Can I upgrade from a 1350 carrier bearing system?
Yes. Many builders upgrade to a 1410 system when increasing tire size, horsepower, vehicle weight, or overall driveline load.
