Hub nut, wheel bearing

  • Hello to the round,


    yesterday I noticed a "clacking" at the front axle of my G-model (Bj 87/ Turbo).

    During an initial check, I noticed that the front wheel, even when the vehicle is stationary (not hanging freely on the stage or similar), can be audibly "tilt".

    First guess was the wheel bearing.

    After removing the hub cap, I came across a design I was unfamiliar with.

    Another cover with a central threaded hole (about 10 mm).

    Presumably the hub nut is located underneath.

    How can this cover be removed?

    Thanks for your answers :)

    Hello Ralf,


    personally I have no experience with wheel bearings here, but in this video from JohannesG / Greasy Fingers he also works on the wheel bearing...
