Ok, so when I removed the old bearings, which actually came out in pieces, I was not too concerned with their orientation, for a couple reasons:first, I thought I was going to convert to tapered bearings, and second, I was an idiot and didn't pay attention. Anyway, I've decided to go with original ball bearings. I just received my delivery from the MossMan last night. Looking at the bearing kits, it seems that they are not symmetrical, aka, the side of each bearing looks different hinting that there might be a specific way that each have to be seated in the hub. I did notice that one side of each (outer and inner) have "Thrust" labeled on them. Is this an indication of the direction that the bearings need to be seated in? I have only worked with tapered bearings before, and they are hard to screw up, but these ones are a little tricky, and I want to make sure that I do it right.
Any help?
