CAUTION
The bearing ring must go onto the shaft with the side
without splines facing toward the small clamp of the
inner boot or severe damage will result.
5. Secure the bearing ring with the snap ring making
sure the sharp side of the snap ring faces away from
the boot.
6. Making sure the marks made during disassembling
align, slide the housing over the bearing ring; then
completely seat the bearing ring into the housing and
install the snap ring.
 NOTE: Pull the bearing ring out of the housing until
it contacts the snap ring; then slide the ring in half
way. This will purge air from the housing and ensure
the bearing is packed properly.
7. Slide the boot over the housing; then using the boot
clamp pliers, secure the boot with the clamp.

hex nut. Tighten the hex nut finger-tight at this time.

then install and spread a new cotter pin making sure
each side of the pin is flush to the hub nut.
