Is there a special trick to getting the Wheel Hubs and Brake Hubs to align. On DS Wheel bearing will not fit on the axle. I will get out some emery cloth and work to get it to fit. But that same bearing fits flush on the PS no issues. But when I try fitting the Hub Assembly on the PS it seems like it is getting hung up on the Brake Hub. So I'm guessing the procedure is to leave the Brake Hub Bolts loos as you are fitting the Hub and Wheel Bearing. Manual does not mention that.
I was able to push the well lubed but not too much Axle Seal into place and finished with a tap from a 2" PVC Pipe. Wheel bearing again lubed up and used the old bearing to tap with 5 lb hammer into place. Well tapped firmly I should say but it appears bearing is flush with the hub. If there is any difference it is very, very slight and gasket will make up the difference. So Guys what's the trick to getting these hubs seated correctly.
