I put my own bearings in with some wood, a socket and a hammer. It was easy and it works fine.
There are supposed to be two bearings though that go in that hub. Did you get the JB kit from TW? The reason I ask, is TW seems to mix and match parts and has been known to leave shiit out.

no Charly, i didn't get the kit from TW, i got it from a store in Canada,
could i reuse the stock bearings? cause i only have 20K on the jeep and was told that i could use the stock ones and not bother with the ones supplied, in my case the one supplied...
does it look like i'm missing anything else?
thanks.

I wouldn't reuse the bearings, and the kit is supposed to come with two, so I'd get two.
And ,honestly, it's easy to put the new bearings in.
As far as anything else that is missing, well, it's just been too long for me to remember that much detail...with certainty, but it looks like you have everything.

Looks like you may be missing a bearing, a snap ring or 2 (you can reuse some of your old ones) and if the seal isn't already pressed into the output section...the seal. The bearing is the main part that you can't live without.

Well I just installed my Bayou kit this weekend (from what I can tell they are the exact same). From what I remember just looks like you are missing that one bearing.
