Attached is a modified factory parts drawing showing the parts in question. Naturally, each axle requires a full set of them. The highlighted items are:
- 35 -- Bearing (usually provided with items 36 and 37)
- 36 -- O-ring
- 37 -- Bearing retaining ring
- 38 -- Bearing retaining plate
- 39 -- Gasket
It should be fairly clear that the bearing is located internally by ring 37 and secured by plate 38 (which is generally re-usable). Oil sealing is accomplished by o-ring 36 and gasket 39. Note that the bearing is a press-fit on the axle and that a large press is generally required for its removal.
