Wheel bearings

(1/1)

yozzer74:
Hi fitted my front wheel bearings today .but when I've put spindle back in and nipped it up the wheel won't turn .if I just nip it up finger tight it's ok .we're have I gone wrong ???

hairygit:
Is the spacer from between the bearings fitted? Is the sleeve nut on the spindle fitted the right way round, and the spindle itself in the wheel the right way?

yozzer74:
Yeah the spacer is between the bearings every thing right way checked with schematics .when I fitted bearings I left a little gap between the spacer and the bearings .after watching a video on u tube  could it be I should not have left a gap .??

hairygit:
Certainly seems a strange thing to do! Is the bearing under the retaining ring fully home, it does need to be? I personally would check both bearings are fully home, and the retaining ring is in as far as it will go.
