Re: Disk Swap on an Eaton HO52
Step Ten: Bebuild the Hub
Part Three: Hub + Rotor
Now that the bearings and seals are taken care of it is time to mate the hub and rotor. Lets go back to the shop press.
Take your Hub and place in the press with the axle seal face up. Set the rotor from the kit on top of the hub and align the lug holes. Drop all the lugs in the holes and push them in finger tight. This will keep things ligned up. Carefully press the lugs in until fully seated. I used some sprayed in white lithium grease to help keep the process bind free. I would recommend working in a crossing pattern much like you would when tightening lugnuts/mounting a wheel. I made sure that all the lugs were fully seated by measuring their exposed length after they seated. No problems appeared.
