400/4 Wheel bearing questions ?

The jury is still out on that one Ted until we see it on the finished article!  But I award 10 out of 10 for the choice of tyre.

So should one install the side wit the lock-ring first, and then gently drive the other bearing in till it's inner race barely touches the spacer tube?
(ball bearings don't like lateral load, so you see to not "squeeze" the spacer tube in there to avoid premature failure...)

Bryanj:
Its ok to squeaze the inner if the outer isnot fixed, its bad to have the inner and outer side loaded against each other

Sesman:
I like those rims Ted. Let’s see it all together. Could be a really tasteful package…..

The guy on U-Tube fits the small one first so that's why I am doing it that way. The spacers seem to determine the distance between the Bearings - then there are the spacers on the axle - tbh it's all a bit Greek to me trying to understand the logic.
