Rear hub question

So I'm getting ready to install my 4 bolt and do a 5 lug swap at the same time. I was able to find some new rear hub assembly's but now the question remains; will I need to purchase the inner bearing and/or oem dust seal? Or are they built into my hubs already and I just have to transfer the stubby shaft that holds the axle cups on?




Just looking for clarification,

Garrett

Thanks!
Looks like I goofed a little. Oh well I got them for $20 each. Guess it's time make a wtb post cause I doubt you can find the spindles new.

That's exactly what they're for. 1g FWD's have a solid rear beam with stub axles sticking out. The rear bearings are not replaceable, just toss on a new hub. These would work nicely for anyone with a 6g Galant GS that wanted to go 5 lug.

My buddy has a rear subframe laying around with the spindles. I had bought these with the hope of making everything shiney and new again. Spindles will not be seen but still, I like to be fresh and the hope that I would have new bearings because replacing the rear bearings looks like a bitch. Yes I did goof when I bought rear bearing assembly for the fwd ):
