New front bearings

When assembling the new wheel hub and bearing, I wasn't happy with the amount of grease they had put in the factory. So off again for some good greasing! While I'm at it, I folded the retaining brackets to secure the disc bolts (pics show before and after, look near the bolt heads).

Taking of the hub gives a different view of the speed sensor and further explains how it can count the disc bolts. But after all those nice pictures, you have to get dirty and reach for the big grease pot.

The crown nut is used to set the bearing. Not too tight because the heat will expand the bearing and it can seize. The securing pin is folded to both sides.

Use brake cleaner to clean all the parts from excessive grease or other gunk. And now have a look at that grease cap. No new grease cap supplied so I had to use the old one. Well, it had a life before and you can see it!

Cheers.
