Yup, dat's right.

Even more entertaining on the Stag box, which has two washers and a bearing
at each end, instead of just one washer.  But it's still not too hard.

If you do, be sure to check out the excellent tech articles available at
http://www.vtr.org/maintain-index.shtml
and
http://www.buckeyetriumphs.org/technical/technical.htm

While a factory book or Haynes is still a good thing to have, the above
(free) articles are much clearer IMO.
