Title: Wheel bearing rings front and rear the same?
Post by: peteracs on June 20, 2016, 02:41:59 PM
Hi All

I have not taken the rear suspension off (yet..) but just wondered if the rear bearing retaining ring was the same as the front one, i.e. the tool and the ring are the same. Reason for the confusion is that I have seen some folk offering rings which they specifically state either front or rear against it.

Yes - the same tool fits both size rings. They differ by a few mm only.
