COMPLAINING BEARINGS -- SOLVED--

Hi again guys.
I changed the cardan bearings because they were old, as soon as I put the new ones they make noise and vibrate a little at low speed. I have taken care to mount them well and at a 90º angle, I marked the washers and transfer to mount it in the same position. Could they be faulty or have I made a mistake? Help please I need your opinion if I should order another news. Thanks

How are the universal joints?

Thanks for your answer but I don't know what you mean by universal joints, I changed the VCU bearings

The flexible joints on the end of the drive shafts, which connect the drive shafts to the VCU splines.

Sorry it seems I'm a bit clumsy. I don't know what joints you mean. I have already changed in others and I do not find anything different, it takes the screw and a U-shaped washer on each side of the VCU. I don't know if that's what you mean...

Ok. Thanks for the picture. I don`t know how to say you how is it... they are normal.
Before the change of central bearings there is no any noise.

So either the new bearings are faulty, or the universal joints were damaged removing them from the VCU.

Ok. Thanks.
