i attempted the install of a detriot trutrac today in my 8" and i ran into a problem.. i pulled the carrier bearings off the existing carrier and they wouldnt fit onto the tru trac. anybody else run into this? are there different sized bearings i can get? any help please. thanks

the part number on the tru trac matches the packing slip for the ford 8" 28spline

Woah, you were able to find a trutrac for an 8"? Where did you get it? I thought they were only for 9" and 8.8"?
