Hi,

Ok I just installed the bearings but why do you get only 4 2mm ones when you need 5???

Cuz you only need 4 ;) the other 3 go in the rear...

4 on front wheels 2 each wheel... (2mm hole)

2 on rear motor pod... (3mm hole)

last bearing goes on outside of the rear tire on spur gear side... if your ball diff (if u haveone) requires a 2mm hold on the last bearing, it should have possibly came with one, most require a 3mm like the stock diff

The rear wheels would not use bearings at all, but the tire on the spur gear side needs to be able to spin in the oposite direction as the axle shaft... for the diff towork.. thus they put a bearing here...

The left rear wheel gets no bearing upgrade.

I prefer to say spur gear side gets the bearing, cuz some ppl hold the car looking at them and then the left becomes right etc... also a reversed motor pod setting, reverses it too ;). And never say DRIVERS side online... that could mean either way too ;)
