The newer one's wear out pretty quick.The Chinese one's are crap!I would look for an NOS or good used one. If your's is still in place don't rev over 3500.you get a few more miles out of it.

Are you looking for the front one or the rear?

I have heard that they now make "green" muffler bearings....

I think for 70-71 they made the same for the front and rear, then in 72 they became different.

Won't work, the hemi units have 18 splines, the /6 have 23....

You mean you can just double them up? Man I love learning new stuff here.. I never would have thought of that. I mean I think the OP probably wants original, which is going to be tough. nice to know there are workarounds.

Eww no thanks. If I want a car that sounds like a sick cicada... ugh, no...

My hearing is shoot from the whining I hear all the time.So I stay in the garage as much as I can. buzzing might not be so bad.

I may have what you're looking for. Here's photos of what I have. Always put in a new seal when replacing the muffler bearing. Slant six seal on top. May be a hemi on bottom? I have this used muffler bearing in the second photo. Rusty but usable. Contact me if interested.
