Hello all, well thanks to all of your guy's help I was able to finally get my big bolt running an driving. The last thing I touched was the rear wheel bearings/seals because one wheel bearing was absolutely shot so I figured I'll just replace both outers. Well, I took it for a drive after that and it made the first journey just fine..6 miles round trip. I took it out to easter dinner and on my way back, I lost my brake pedal and looked behind me to notice the axle/drum sliding out of the housing. I tore it all apart and everything seemed in order, but obviously I am doing something wrong reassembling or the outer hub is worn out allowing the drum to slide off? I'm not really sure. So, on the rear spindles I assembled it as(from closest to the rear end moving towards the wheel): round dust cap looking object, wheel seal, inner wheel bearing, outer wheel bearing, then I placed a spacer type object that had a keyway on it on the outside of wheel bearing, then retaining nut, then the caged/barbed look locking piece, then retaining nut. Am I missing anything? I know this may be hard to understand the way I am describing, but any information is appreciated. Or any pictures someone may have that would help me get an idea of how it should look. I have a 1946 Chevy 2 ton 2 speed rear end. If I can clear up any information, just let me know. Thanks in advance.
