I have my bearing in hand and will be getting my spacer machined with the shoulder. I notice some deep grooves in the rear hub rubber dampers. There must have been more play than I thought.

Just wondering, should I go ahead and leave the rubber floor mat shim in place after replacing the bearing? Or will that be too thick or otherwise problematic once the double bearing is in place?

I thought providing a little protection for the bearing seal would be nice. So I cut down the spacer for the new double bearing, and I machined a couple of washers to slide over the spacer.

(I think I am one of the few fellows who still uses solder to attach steel parts together). I have some stuff going to get new Zinc Chromate plated - so I will throw these in and get them plated before I install them.

Can I let a pound of air out of the tire to make the bike lighter? Here is what it looks like assembled.

Also am I to understand you guys left the dampers out of the hub? What rubber shims are you guys referring to?

Duderino,
Remove the original left side seal and bearing in the pulley carrier.
Install the double row bearing and new left spacer (you can Loctite the spacer into the bearing so it doesn't fall out).
Leave everything else in the rear wheel the same. Def leave the dampers in the hub.
Don't worry about the rubber shims. It doesn't apply to you.
Make sense?
