Rear Hubs

The drive shaft fitted and the hub carrier was fitted to the left hand side first.  Two things that I learned:

1.  The drive shafts are different lengths (left hand is shorter), so no matter how hard you try, the right hand one won't fit.

2.  The left hand hub nut has a left hand thread.  I also found out here that my torque wrench only works on a right hand thread, I nearly broke my back figuring it out, but got there in the end.
The brake disc is fitted temporarily to help align the caliper.  Note that the rear calipers are fitted to the front of the assembly.
