Rear hub bearing lock ring.

(1/4) > >>

Johnny4428:
What’s the consensus regarding the bearing retainer ring that screws into rear hub? Couple of drops of loctite maybe? Or just a bit of peening? Can’t remember what I did on the last one.😳

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
As it's a left hand thread I just tightened mine it up in case I ever needed to take it off again.

That was when I found out that some of the DS replacements were not machined correctly so the special tool they sell does not quite fit.

Johnny4428:
Just tightened mine too Ted but thought I would ask before I fit the sprocket.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Bryan may add what was his workshop practice experience - not mentioned in my Haynes Manual - that said there is lots they don't mention.

Bryanj:
Never did one in the dealers! On mine just tightened it up
