F. Apply a thin coat of white lithium grease to the
perforated side of the included flat thrust washers and the
inside of the bearings that are installed from Fab Fours into
the Pivot Housing. A coat thick enough to fill the holes will
suffice. Please contact Fab Fours immediately if the
cylindrical bearings are not installed in the tire carrier pivot
housing.
G. Install one of the thrust washers onto the shaft with the
greased perforated side facing down onto the lower pivot
mount bracket’s top face. Then slide the tire carrier
assembly gently onto the shaft being careful not to damage
the bearings greased in the previous step. Then place the
remaining thrust washer on the top of the pivot housing
with the greased perforated side facing up.
