The rear hub.

New SKF bearings and seals, all hardware zinkplated.

Wheel axle with bearings and spacers.

Checking that the axle fits in the swing arm, the swing has been stretched at some point in history but it all seems to match up nice.

Before installing the new bearings I measure the depth so I can check that the bearing is seated correctly.

A little grease to help the bearing to enter is a great idea.



Spacing sleeve installed between the wheel bearings.



Bearing, washer and seal installed.



Hub and backing plate mounted in swing arm.
