Rear hub

Post by egonski » Wed Jun 18, 2014 5:16 pm

I'm going to check the rear hub this weekend, I understand they are prone to seizing and require a good greasing. I don't suspect that has happened and am just doing it as part of the maintenance. just want to know if there is anything useful I should know before I take it apart, as I'm sure some of you have done this already. I have the Haynes manual and a workshop manual so don't envisage any huge problems, but then of course........!!!.
Cheers

It's a fairly easy job to be honest.

As with any maintenance, just take your time, write down where things went (I usually take photos for complex stuff) and just to make sure you heard it the first time - take your time!
