Rear Hub Question

Got this email today - I can't remember, anyone recall?

Hi JP, I wanted to ask you about the paper gasket just beneath the rear axle flange that mates to the hub. I'm replacing the seal and o-ring but wanted to know if the paper gasket is supposed to go cover the o-ring or should it be trimmed so it does not go over it? The one coming off does cover the o-ring, I will be cutting my own from gasket sheet material but I don't want it on the o-ring if it shouldn't be.

thanks all
 
Fits against the O ring as I recall.

Kurt.
