Please look at the third post in this thread. I forgot some info in my original post

Ok I need to clarify something.
I am looking for some rear hubs and associated parts for my V8 Rabbit project.

What I want is the later model single wheel bearing rear hub setup.

What I can't figure out is what year they changed to the single wheel bearing.

Accdording to Pelicans own info it looks like they changed from two wheel bearings to a single wheel bearing in 1985.

Is this correct?

Also, does anyone have any opinions as to which arrangement is stronger.

In the 4x4 world usually the more bearings supporting any shaft the better.

Does this sort of thing hold true in this instance?

Has anyone had any experiences with either the dual bearing or single bearing set up that can give me some direction in this matter?
