I've ordered rear diff bearings and received 2 different sizes but my bearings are both the same size ( the larger of the 2) when googling all the kits seem to have 1 large 1 small.
And ideas as to why mine would both be the same size?

Some idea of model & year of the vehicle you're talking about would help - even in the relevant forum.

Sorry Ratae,

1990 110 Defender, been stored for 3 years so giving it a bit of a full going over, both bearings fairly loose so ordered a pair based on year and model but got 1 small 1 large. Can't seem to find on google any that have the 2 large bearing like mine.

Thank you
 
That's funny. I've had a number of Land Rover axles apart over the years, from a Series 2 to a 2006 Defender and the bearings holding the diff mechanism are both the same size. Large-ish tapered roller races. Indeed, last time I bought some they had the same part number so they must be the same. Could it be a bearing kit for something else?
I should add that I haven't had a Salisbury axle so I don't know what they have. Mine have been Rover type or ENV.
