Ring and Pinions

When buying ring and pinion gears do they typically come with the front and rear set? Or do you have to buy two??

Um....no...? Ring and pinions come together in a set. So, to redo the front and back you'll need two sets among other stuff.

However, front gears are a different size than rear if the vehicle is IFS.....

What all do I need? Front and rear ring and pinions and replacement bearings? or should I buy an entire install kit with bearings and races and seals?

if you dont know what you need i would not suggest you even changing the gears. have someone else do it. its real easy to mess up.
