No idea, but for the price of those things it's probably more cost effective to have a drivetrain shop make you a 1pc out of your factory 2pc if you plan on keeping the car or abusing it. Guy local does em for about $200 and makes a noticeable difference from factory even with a good carrier bearing.

2 piece is necessary to reduce vibration in this vehicle, hence why it is like that.

I can understand the vibration theory, but I always get less vibration probably due to having a million mile carrier I'm replacing. Plus none of my cars are stock, and the benefits of the 1pc outweigh the 2nd for me personally
