Putting the front wheel bearing back together.

Hi all
A while back when the discussion of how to tighten the front wheel bearings came up I mentioned I did it with an indicator to make sure the felt was fully squished. I also said I would put up a picture. Its only about a month later but for what its worth, tightening the wheel bearing with an indicator to make sure it is properly tighened. No question this way if the felt is causing drag or the wheel bearing.
