Default Re: Rear axle shaft nut, how to turn on

Hello Bob,

I asked myself that several times. I did not find any literature / pictures about it. On both sides was between the drive shaft and the hub end 1 disc leather, 1 wafer-thin disc steel, 1 leather disc.

I renewed the thin leather discs.

I think that's because of the rotating contact surface between the hub and the axle housing?
