OK this is one of the questions that sounds stupid but I need to know. I am replacing my back tire. I removed wheel and all hubs replaced bearings and polished everything. I have noticed on the forum it has been said to mark the hubs to put back in the same position. Well I didn't mark( I know what a dumb ass) hubs. What can happed will the wheel be unbalanced? I have placed hubs on the correct side not just in the exact same spot. :confused:

No problem. Put them back together and you'll be fine. On mine though there is a dot on the wheel and the hubs that I match up.

Should there be any slide play on the spacer the long one in between the hubs and the outer bearings

Mine is tight and I have to insert the axle when I lock down the hugs to ensure it's centered correctly

close to zero play but definitely not tight either.

its a critical part

make sure the bearings are fully seated

Thanks Marv- I had slight play on the inner long spacer. Got it corrected now. What kind of grease would you recommend on the axel.
