A: You would need 2 kits (one kit does one rear side). It should be the same as your JK, but you will need to verify and provide the BOM to be sure. Answer provided by:  Ryan (12/21/2017)

A: These have the backing plate that gets installed before the bearings, just like stock. If you have a bearing failure, the bearing super-heats and then slides off the axle shaft. At that point, there isn't anything that will hold the shaft into the vehicle. The best advice is to use quality components and Timken Bearings (that is what is in our kit) and inspect the bearings every 1-2 years for wear, proper lubrication, etc. Answer provided by:  Ryan (1/2/2019)
