Garage
after having the first bearing in, that was the point i made a horrible mistake.
the next step after inserting the bearing should be to reinstall the retaining plate. i forgot to do that, and continued with installing the hub.
i ended up repeating the whole process from the beginning
removing the hub, removing the inner race from the hub and removing the bearing from the housing.
boy. that was a long day.
obviously, i also needed a new bearing.
lucky for me, i live 2 minutes drive from tuneRS (literally)so i gave the call.
they didn't have the bearing in hand, but was kind enough to order it for me.
the guy gave me a call in about an hour, and i picked it up.
so its good opportunity to thank the guys at tuneRS, for saving me the trip to the stealership.
