How to replace driveshaft center support/hanger bearing on a Mercedes GL/ML/R (X164/W164/W251)
In this video I use some basic tools and a few paperclips to service the driveshaft on my Mercedes GL 320 Bluetec. The central bearing on the driveshaft was starting to fail so it had to be replaced. Mercedes does not sell a replacement bearing because the driveshaft is a "non-serviceable item" on this vehicle so they charge $1400+ for a new driveshaft.
I bought a bearing for $50 and took apart the shaft to replace it.
Here is the bearing used on this vehicle (perfect fit on the GL):

I apologize for the bad sound half way through the video - I had some technical difficulties with the mic.
