Front wheel bearing retainer ring question?
« on: May 13, 2023, 12:48:47 PM »
Might seem an odd question but is the thread of the front hub bearing retainer on a 500 the same thread as the 400?

I am aware that the slots for the wheel bearing  removal tool are a different spacing on the 400 & 500's.

This is a neat 500 restoration in the USA.
