I never took pictures of my front hub when I dismantled it for refinishing the backing plate, etc. Now, I can't figure out the order or reassembly. Any help for an obvious visual learner? Thanks | | | | | Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 1,897 Member | | Member Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 1,897 | .You took apart both sides I suppose,,,,
the order should be;
1.backing plate.
2.wheel cylinder.
3.brake shoes and retaining hardware.
4.small dust shield then the inner bearing race on the spindle.
.I do not know if you are replacing the bearings and races with new ones,but if you are, now is a good time.Install both races in the hub and make sure it is then cleaned.Make sure to pack the bearings with good clean grease.
5.inner bearing and race,then the inner seal.(on the hub)
6.install the hub/drum on the spindle.
7.install the outer bearing in the hub and the outer race.
8.install the thrust washer then the retaining nut.(adjust to spec.in book)
9.install the nut retainer and cotter pin then the dust cap.
.
.
.Should be it.Any questions, feel free to e-mail me.
There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.
