HI Team, I also messed this up recently, CAN CONFIRM if you dont get the bearing with the wider shoulder on the outside (outboard side) of the inner race then you get the drum rubbing on the backing plate. I think the widetrack and early vitara share the wider bearing. Alternately you can get the kit with the spacer. This mistake cost me a bearing as I have not come up with a non destructive way to remove bearing.

Could be worse you could put the bearing on before the backing plate.
Just get another bearing and get your car back on the road haha
