If the hole for the cotter pin is ligned up with the hole in the spindle your good to go. If not back off the nut to align the 2 holes so you can install the cotter pin. NEVER tighten it to align the holes.

Yes!!!
I left some of that detail out...LOL, was focused on grease...
Another tip. I clean the bearings as good as possible in solvent, THEN rinse them with starting fluid. Sounds odd, but the either leaves NO residue, and is cheap...of course it is mucho flammable...
