The carrier bearing is located in the center of a two piece drive shaft. It holds up the center of the drive shaft. The drive shaft extends from the rear of the transmision to the rear drive axle (differental). The two piece drive shaft and the carrier are needed when there is a large angle between the transmission and the differental. The carrier bearing keeps the drive shaft up high under the vehicle.

Does my 96 firebird have carrier bearings in the driveshaft?

It could have a carrier bearing but its pretty rare. I have a 96 firebird and it definitely has a split driveshaft. It is so rare that when my carrier bearing went bad, none of the part stores could even get a parts number to order one. So the car still sits. You will have to look at your driveshaft. If it's solid front to back it does not have a carrier bearing. If it looks like 2 shorter driveshafts that meet in the center of the car, then yes it would have a carrier bearing.

How od you change the carrier bearing in a 1992 Toyota pickup?

The carrier bearing is removed from the drive shaft, after it is removed from the vehicle. Block and level the truck and remove the clamps or snap rings on both the universal joints and then unbolt the carrier bearing assembly from the truck. If memory serves, it needs to go to a drive shaft shop to have the old bearing pressed off and the new one pressed on. There is an outside chance that it will come off in pieces, but unlikely. If the truck is in the rust belt, you're better farming the whole job out.
