Hi!

I'm in the process of overhauling bits of my rear axle and part of my work involves fitting new brake-wheel bearings.

The bearings have two sides - a side which is effectively a flat metal ring, and the other side through which the ball bearings protrude.

With respect to the cups *IN THE WHEEL*, which side faces into them? (And are both bearings the same way round)

Cheers
