Have decided to upgrade my front wheel bearings to Timken Roller bearings- I put new ball bearing bearings when I started the resto but never run on them.

Can I use the front bearings in the rear? (have new one in the rear as well) or are they a different size? (Thinking in terms of the Moke resto)

Fronts and rears are different sizes. Won't fit.
