Ive just replaced the bearings in one of my rear hub bearing housings and I'm not happy with it. (Haven't refitted it yet on bus)
I've got the later style 71 onwards bearings. I packed them full of grease, pressed them in, fitted circlip/fitted bearing spacer, then the splined shaft.
Theres minimal 12/3/6/9 play as expected but when you turn it over by hand you feel the occasional 'rough' feeling.
Its not a tightspot as its random, I wouldn't go as far as to say it feels like a grinding, but it just doesn't feel as nice as I would expect (never done a rear one before, just front ones)
Suppose you could say every few turns there is a very mild random grinding feeling by hand?
Am I missing something or any ideas?
