Rear wheel bearings

[ian1987]

I have been having issues with rear wheel bearing wear on my 300 ec. I noticed recently that the washer which goes between the 2 bearings on the sprocket side is actually missing.

I have ordered the washer but have read on a few forums that there is a right and wrong way to install the washer. Has anyone a photo of the correct setup or can advise?

Cheers

You're welcome.

Basically, the stepped surface faces out.

There is a stepped surface on the washer that fits into the larger outer bearing. Its kind of a one way fit thing.
