All of the internal stuff is unchanged, the only difference is the external gaskets which arent part of the basic kit.

You can use them but I highly recommend against using the RA stuff specifically. There's a sticky'd thread here in this section dealing with my woes concerning those o-rings and ultimately the company.

The two needle bearings that provide a rolling surface for the thrust plate up front that's bolted to the front gear.
