Front hub bearings
DomP:
I've assembled the hub tonight, with bearings and spacer fitted it ends up flush on the right side in order that the retainer presses the left bearing up to its seat. As I recall that's how it was when I disassembled it

Is that front or rear wheel Dom?
Bryanj:
If you put pre load on single race ball bearings they dont last long.
I dissagree with regreasing them cos the only way to get them out is to hit the inner race to move the outer and that will damage both the races and the balls, remember only hit the race that is a tight fit
