Mecanum Wheel Bearings

This is FRC Team 3266's first year at using mecanum wheels so we only purchased the wheels and not any of the mounting equipment because we didn't know. Now we have everything else ready to order except the bearings. For mecanum wheels do we need to order 2 flanged bearings for each wheel just like the standard wheel? Also what size ID do the bearings need to be for the KOP axles (long bolts if that makes more sense)? One last thing, for the sprockets mounted on the CIMpleboxes should we just order 2 more double KOP sprockets or 4 single slightly larger ones. Thanks!
