2007–2009 Kia Sorento 2WD Rear Driveshaft Center Support Bearing: Fitment
Direct answer
For a 2007–2009 Kia Sorento 2WD, there is no supported rear driveshaft center support bearing fitment because a two-wheel-drive Sorento does not use a rear driveshaft or a rear propeller-shaft assembly. A driveshaft center support bearing is a component of a longitudinal propeller shaft, the type used to send power from a front-mounted transmission or transfer case to a rear axle. In a 2WD Sorento of this generation, the rear wheels are not driven, so the vehicle does not have the rear driveshaft that would require this bearing.
Why the 2WD configuration changes the answer
The 2007–2009 Kia Sorento was offered in different drive layouts depending on market and trim. Rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive examples can have a rear driveshaft between the transmission or transfer case and the rear differential. On those vehicles, a center support bearing may be used when the driveshaft is built in sections and needs an intermediate mounting point. A 2WD Sorento, by contrast, is front-wheel drive in this context and has no such rear propeller shaft.
This is the key qualification: the phrase "rear driveshaft center support bearing" assumes a rear driveshaft exists. For 2WD fitment, that assumption is false. The correct scope is therefore limited to 4WD or RWD Sorento variants, and even then the bearing must be matched to the specific driveshaft assembly rather than treated as a universal part.
What to check if you are diagnosing a 2007–2009 Sorento
If a parts lookup or service manual lists a rear driveshaft center support bearing for a 2007–2009 Sorento, first confirm that the vehicle is actually 4WD or RWD. A 2WD model should not have this component as original equipment. The closer match for a 2WD front-wheel-drive Sorento would be front half-shafts, which are also called axle shafts, but those do not use a propeller-shaft center support bearing.
There is not enough model-specific data in the supplied material to identify a single Kia part number that fits every 2007–2009 4WD or RWD Sorento. Driveshaft support bearing replacement is commonly sold as part of the complete driveshaft assembly or as a separate bearing and bracket, depending on the supplier. A safe next action is to verify the drive type, confirm whether the vehicle has a two-piece rear driveshaft, and use the VIN or original part marking to select the correct assembly.
Coverage gap
The supplied coverage does not include exact interchange part numbers, specific 4WD driveline variants, or market-by-market Sorento equipment for these model years. Any exact replacement part should be confirmed against the vehicle's drive type and original driveshaft configuration before purchase.
