They just say the rear will they also work on my front axles too.

I have since read that your axles are 10mm so you'd need to get some 10mm ID tubing with a 12mm OD to sleeve then back.
You should be able to get it at a plumbing or hardware store.
They will work both back and front.

I don't know about youtube - you'd have to search.
It's just a matter of cutting the tube to length and slipping it in.
You will need to drill a hole for the pins.
You could do that once you have the tubing in.

Ok so I just slide the tubing over axles and then drill holes for pins then how do I keep the pins in. Hope not a stupid question.

Other way round.
You'll have to slip the tubing inside the hexes and drill the holes using the holes in the hex to guide you THEN slip them on the axles.
The wheels hold the pins in and the nuts keep the wheels on.

Thanks for the cudos Gman but I'm by no means an expert.
I don't think we ever stop learning about these things.

When it broke it sounded decent and it gave a tad bit more low end torque. But I know the jetpro will give me more also I have the walbro 813 on it's way don't like the little hesitation from idle from what I have heard this will fix my problem with the performance carb.

The 813 has an exciter pump.
I don't have any experience with them but have heard it makes em hard to tune.
I use a 668 on my DR
