OK.. one more time in case you all missed it. The tapered/chamfered
mating surfaces must be liberally coated with grease (as well as the
splines). I know we don't like any grease showing, but.. and while I'm
at it the same goes for the door strikers and hinges.. use grease.
And.. there should not be any movement. Movement is what ruins the
splines..

<div>Roger: I have had my Healey for a long time and during that
time I have attended many tech sessions put on by different
people. I do recall that mpfmpf (that's the sound of rubbing
your fingers over your lips while you talk) years ago, I was
told that there was an allowable amount of movement of the wheel
on the hub. I have made a cursory search of some of my old
notes but I could not find that data. It wasn't much - a

measured at the outside diameter of the tire with the wheel/tire
