Hello all. I am curious if someone can tell me the proper order to install the bearing assembly on the left side of the front Hub. I am attaching a screenshot from my '32 parts list book, but it is a bit confusing when it comes to the felt washer(s). Let me provide what I know, and hopefully someone can lead me the rest of the way down the path. First thing that goes in is the bearing cup....the second item that goes in is the bearing that fits into the bearing cup. Then what? Does the felt washer retainer then go in on top of that with a felt washer on top of it, then the retainer retaining ring that holds the felt in place? Or is this wrong? The '32 parts list shows a felt washer (35B765), then a Felt washer retainer (35B767), then another felt washer (35B765). Are there 2 felt washers in the mix on the left side of the Hub? I ordered a felt washer retainer package from Walker for the front Hub and I received 3 retainers. (1) retainer with no felt washer (2) one retainer with a removable felt washer sitting in the retainer channel and (3) a retainer with a felt washer embedded internally in the retainer. Not sure what is correct.....if anything. When I took the Hub apart it had no felt washers and no retainer ring. It seemed to have a rubber gasket on the outside holding everything in place. Thanks for anything anyone can offer on this topic, I appreciate it. Brent

Thank you rustynutz and tgarcia. tgarcia....your picture might help, but I can't really see it. When I blow it up it becomes too hard to read and blurry. Can you tell me where you found the picture so I can go find it? It looks like Jerry Greer info, but I can't tell what years of bike it is for or any of the detail of the felt washers or retainers. If you could repost bigger or tell me where you found it, I would appreciate it.
