John, not in an early model or FC.  If you carry a spare bearing, only, 
you had better also carry a 20-ton press!  Ain't no way that you are 
going to change a bearing at the roadside, but a spare axle and bearing 
assembly can be installed in relatively short order with just basic 
tools and a gear puller.

Now, of course, I do not carry any such spares ordinarily, when I travel 
no more than a few hours from home.  But for a long road trip, yup, a 
spare axle and bearing assembly goes in the car.
