No Washers!

Use Locktite and a torque wrench. To really do it right, replace those bolts with grade 12.9.

I'm doing rear wheel bearings on a '86...

42.2 of Bentley looks like it shows a washer under the bolt heads that hold the bearing housing to the trailing arm.

Mine don't have no steenking washers...

Sooo, should they?

Anyone out there done rear bearings lately and remember if there was washers or not?

Thanks, Steve '86 Westy
