Measured the intermediate shaft for straightness. It's good. Measuring the outside of the shaft is not ideal but it confirmed with some careful measuring that the tube is not bent. Swapped out the dual hybrid that I've sourced and failed with an LN hybrid dual row kit. Since the shaft was out, I used a big drill press to manually press in the new bearing using the parts from the LN bearing tool kit. It went in line butter. The shaft tensioner pad was worn so after ordering a new one at the local dealer (cheaper than online), it was re installed.
