Have a bearing just starting to fail. I replaced these @10k ago. Lube was leaking out and a very small amount of play. Inner bearing bad. Guess I will go with the wider inner bearing this time. Axles have been replaced before. Preferred bearing brand ? NTN brand has failed. Also I don't have the bearing shield, been without it for years. Get them or not ?

Oh yeah, I have the spacer. Have to shorten it for the wider bearing.
Looks familiar, working on mine too
Curious are you using stock axles or cv’s?
Stock axles
I'm missing #9 & 9a. Haven't been there for over 15 years. Do I really need them ?
I replaced rear bearings with the larger ones from Wilkenson and the smaller spacer. Steve said no need to replace the shields. So, I did not.

Just get bearings with seals and forget the dust shields.
