Figure 58 — Reassembling the Wheel Bearings
7.7.7 Replacing the wheel bearings
NOTE:
For axles with grease retainers (see Figure 56), you will need to get new
grease retainers, since they will be damaged in the process of removing the
outer races.
NOTE:
Unpack the bearings at the last minute and be careful to avoid mixing up
their parts.
To replace the wheel bearings:
1. Remove the wheel bearings as described in section 7.7.6.
2. Remove the outer races of the bearings, which are inside the hub (see Figure 59).
NOTE:
Note the positions of the outer races and grease retainers for
reassembly.
NOTE:
If the axle has grease retainers, they will come out at the same time
as the outer races and will be have been damaged as a result.
3. Insert the outer races as shown in Figure 60.
NOTE:
Make sure to put the outer races and grease retainers in the correct
positions.
