The front wheel bearings on my cooper sport 500 require changing (not a
problem for me to do).
I"ve looked in the Moss spares catalogue and it shows a plain washer behind
the hub nut.On my
mini this is not fitted.I was wondering if it had maybe been left off during
manufacture.Does this washer
need to be fitted ?Has anyone had the same problem ?Has it caused the
bearings to fail ?


Thnx.....Mick from the North East

There should be a thrust washer, its like a cone shape with a slot in it, ,
don't know where moss got the plain washer from, them 13" wheels eat front
bearings & hubs too,
