Welcome to the site Mike.

No, its not the same bearing. The rear axles use drum brakes vs disc brakes up front.

that doesent answer my question as both drum and disc are retained and new bearings installed in them mike

the front bearing and rear are different. it is just the sizes that are different, as they fit around different parts.

one rides on a spindle and turns with the hub/drum. The other has the spinning hub pressed inside it and is inside the spindle.
