Why don't you just have one made for what you're doing with the truck? Then you won't be going thru this every time.

C J I would build 1 that way you know what you have and it's made to fit what you are going to do with truck and maybe it won't break ? easier in long run

2WD is different than 4WD.

2WD is a 2 piece w/ carrier bearing.

4WD is 1 piece from the transfer case to the rear end.
