Rear Hub Bearing Installation
Apply grease to the ratchet ring (a) and the seal surface (b) of the hub
shell.
NOTICE
If a brush is used to apply grease, confirm there are no loose bristles
in the grease or on the part.
Apply grease to the last 10-15mm of the axle. Installation of the driver
body will distribute the grease on the entire hub axle.
NOTICE
If a brush is used to apply grease, confirm there are no loose bristles
in the grease or on the part.
Install the driver body onto the axle and twist it counter-clockwise to
seat the driver body and driver body seal.
Make sure the driver body seal is fully seated into the seal groove.
The installation process is the same for 10 speed and XD driver bodies.
Install the wave spring onto the non-drive side of the axle. You may
need a tool to press the wave spring against the bearing face.
NOTICE
Do not scratch the axle when using a tool to install the wave spring.
The wave spring is crucial to hub performance and must be installed
onto the axle.
