Rear Hub

[Ian Roberts]

Roover P6 2000 TC 1969. Rear Hub bearing suspect, removed drive shaft and noticed the dust/oil cover outboard was loose and rubbing on the propshaft, bearings appear ok.How is the cover resecured without having to dismantle the whole Hub please?.

IIRC it’s a press fit onto the output flange housing. You might be able to pry it back into place. The cover is meant to keep oil from a failed oil seal hitting the brake discs (didn’t do that on mine. I need to replace oilseal for that reason).

Thanks did that and pinged it a couple of places, no oil in the hub just grease. On the bearings.
