Hi All, I have a 99 Fatboy which uses the taper wheel bearings. I want to give them a grease as per the manual, can anyone advise if they can be put back with new seals without having to check the end float / preload with dial indicator?
early wheels can be done by the feel , 0.002" too 0.004"-5" . e.g. a PUBIC hair off a girl's whatdoyoucallit downunder is about 0.002" too 0.0025" thick so you can go by the feel 1st & then guess it from there , good luck
Thanks for the info fellas, took them out, they looked and felt fine so greased and replaced with the existing shims, can't feel any play but may ride a llittle and try again.
