are they one in the same? I'm confused, the parts database lists both but they're different part numbers, what's the difference? (8.25)

axle bearings are probably the carrier bearings.

axle bearings go around the shaft near the brakes

carrier bearings go inside the diff near the splines

except they're not called carrier bearins and axle bearings in the parts DB I'm looking at, hence the question.
