I'm in the process of upgrading my brakes to 11", and have it broken down
to  install them. Since I had the hub and everything else of I was going to
clean out the ball thing and found three small piece of metal laying on the
bottom but can't seem to find what they are or for. Can anyone help me with
this, I taken a photo to show what they look like.

  I believe it's the retainer that holds the Rzeppa joint together - or was. BW

I check it out and it is the retainer like Bruce with saying.
MY next question is where do I get one and what type of screws do I need also.
 
Also is there an interior seal or brass bushing where the shaft goes into the axle
at this location too. I'm seeing both but not sure which one I need to install.
 
any help would be great
thank you

G503 Ford GPW Willys MB Army Jeep Rzeppa Axle Rebuild Kit
 
 
Can someone tell me if the kit will work on a CJ2A front axle?
Are the same, or completely didn't type of Rzeppa?

  I have a couple of those kits that I picked up a while back "just in case". I will check one and see if the retainer and/or screws are included.  BW
