- Just a note, particularly for those who may not have done front wheel bearings. On disassembly pay particular attention to how the bearings are oriented. There is a "thrust" side which was always mar

- On front wheel bearings does the "strong" side face the spacer? It's been a while and I can't remember. Larry Miller

- Strong...? I don't remember "strong"... do you mean "Thrust"? "Thrust side faces the spacer or "centre of the hub" in manual lingo. My recollection is that writing is only on one side of the bearing,

- Angular contact wheel ball bearings are usually marked "Thrust" on one side. The side marked "Thrust" should face the spacer. Technically, the opposite side from the one marked "Thrust" is the struc

- These bearings are not marked. By "strong" I meant the side of the bearing that the inner race will not come out of, at least not as easy as it could come out the other side. On the side that I call

- O.K., the strong side goes AWAY from the spacer. It makes sense if you think about it: the strong side keeps the bearings from coming apart in that direction, and the spacer keeps them from coming ap
