Dana 44 Timken bearing replacement

[Heliboy]

So I've read the threads about the Timken Set 10 with Timken 9912 seals, and to make sure the shaft collars are there. However, the picture I see includes a backing plate that mine does not seem to have (I have a 2005 Rubicon with rear disc brakes); and yes, I know the rear disc brakes "need the backing plate with the lip on it". Yet when I look at mine on my rig the axle has the 4 bolts onto a plate, but the plate is one solid piece that is integrated into the disc brake apparatus. Am I missing something about that backing plate?

The bracket in the above photo sits behind the disk brake assembly. You can't see it until you remove the four nuts to allow the axle shaft assembly to be slid out.

Ah, I thought that might be the case. So next question is: where to get that single backing plate from? Only full set I see that carries it is the Crown set. Any suggestions?

Never mind. I just found them at quadratec. Duh. Thanks for all the help!
