whatsoever, go ahead and replace the seal and bearings and repack with
fresh grease.

11. Reinstall the hub. Push the hub back into place. Make sure your bearings are seated.

12. Install the washer and use a new tang washer. It is always a good idea to replace it,
just like a cotter pin.

13. Reinstall a castle nut, run it down until it stops. Rock the hub back and forth a little
bit. Spin the hub a little bit. Make sure everything is seated. Run the castle nut down
until it stops and then back off to the next notch, then align hole in castle nut with
the hole in the spindle and insert cotter key.
