I was taught not to spray the hub where the bell mounts as it can cause slight run out issues.

Good write/picture up none the less.

Them AP's look like they have certainly been used in anger:thumbs:

Good write up - thanks for taking the time to do this :thumbs:

One question: do the replacement nuts/bolts require threadlocking with Loctite or similar?
