[QUOTE="delboy, post: 178762, member: 3596"] My take on PEI's plan when all is assembled, was that the double coil washer puts pressure on the inner track of the ball bearing, which in turn puts side pressure on the balls against the outside outer track and thus, hard against the oil slinger shim and against the "tin hat" cover. Now one needs to take a little of that side thrust off of the ball bearings and make them a bit more centrally in the bearing track. Hence the idea of the sprocket being almost tight on the taper and the shim behind it adjusted so that it just slightly pushes the oil slinger and inner bearing back against the spring pressure to relieve the balls of very high loading and get a slight clearance for the oil slinger.
