Taper head bearings.

(1/2) > >>

royhall:
Just removed the old head bearing ball races from the frame. On the lower one there is a round spacer underneath the bearing, does this stay in when fitting taper roller bearings or do I need to get it out (see photo). Also, which taper bearing goes to the bottom, thick or thin. And where do the sealing washers go.

You know, I have done this a dozen times and I cant for the life of me remember how they go. Memory must be failing along with the rest of me. If it needs to come out, I need to do it quick before it goes for powder coating.

Bryanj:
There should not be any spacer in there just the shoulder the race goes up tp

royhall:
I assume the larger of the two bearings goes in the bottom then Bryan. Is that spacer there just for the original loose ball race then.

Bryanj:
Not supposed to be a spacer for any of the bearings mate, nothing in parts book

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Spacer might be part of it having had aftermarket Bearings fitted.
