Front wheel bearing fitment?
 
1 Attachment(s)
We're changing them, parts supplied by Brookhouse, They come with two metal rings, one deeper than the other (see pic) and we don't know why/ which one to use. Both fit on the larger bearing sitting on the outside/ wheel side of the hub, but one sits deeper than the other.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

This is a useful video that may clarify:~ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY61qByxIi4

Thanks Bob. It's useful to watch, but he seems to have just the one ring. We've gone ahead with the shallower of the two, it seems to fit better, hopefully it'll be fine!

I'm confused. I'm doing my bearings at the moment and have the disassembled hub in front of me.

On my car, the larger bearing is on the inside.

And I have never seen those rings on the outside of the hub, but they definitely go on the inside.

P.S. Just watched the video and he puts the ring on the inside bearing, just like on my car.

Regards,
Henrik Morsing
