I just went by the part numbers and the cross reference numbers Rob Love had dug up. I ended up getting all 5 bearings on eBay. As for the originals. Yes the bottoms ones had rusting and some rust flakes inside them. The upper ones look ok but I figured with it all apart I may as well replace them too.

I haven’t looked that far ahead yet for what oil I’ll use. My Willys MB seems to like the 80/90 transmission hypoid oils.

I compared my gears to some NOS ones on eBay and found mine were looking pretty much the same.
