The 2013 went back to standard seals... I'd guess the 2018 probably has too.

IMO the caged rollers like that don't have as many needles to share the load across and never hold up as well in service as the loose needles that are packed in with grease.

I have noticed my 13 has a bit of slop in the back end as well. I know I have the caged bearings too, and last time I pushed everything out to lube everything looked good.. Could be the same thing happening.
