Rear Wheel Bearings - What Else?

[monoblanco]

I'm replacing my rear wheel bearings.

Is there any other part pertaining to the wheel bearings that I should replace?

After adding the wheel bearings to the shopping cart the web site is recommending I purchase the following:

Axle Shaft Securing Nut, Each

Snap Ring for Rear Wheel Bearing 79 X 2.5 mm
Lock Plate for Rear Axle Nut
Nut, Wheel Bearing/Axle Shaft




Thanks.

You will definitely need new lock plates, should get new nuts, and may need new snap rings.

Reboot the axles while their free.

Looks like the axle nut is on the list twice, but otherwise, yes to everything. Prying that lockring out with a screwdriver is going to send it into the farthest corner of the garage, and you'll never find it, so get new ones.
