Re: REQ INFO: One Piece Axel
On the one-piece axles, the brake backingplate holds the axles in place. The
seal goes on the inside of the bearings, so when the axles are removed, you
can take the seals off and put new ones on. The bearings are pressed onto
the axles with the brake backing plates set in place first.
