85 300SD Front wheel bearings. Washer/ shim under spindle nut ?
I was stopped in the middle of replacing front wheel bearings and rotor. Now getting back to it I happened to notice some some sites mention a shim/ washer between the outer bearing and the spindle nut. I do not currently have access to my parts breakdown diagram. If anyone has quick access and can tell me yeh or neh it would be a great help.
Thanks ( loosing daylight and wifes patience ) Alan

Hmm. I'm not sure. EVERY wheel bearing I've ever seen has the washer, but I've done dozens of MB's and I simply do not remember if there is a keyed washer or not.
surely there are pictures in the wikki DIY area...

Me too. always a washer. So now I need to get one if it is not there. Going to confirm and make sure I did not just drop it.
Thanks

The EPC does not show one for the 126.120:
The design seems to work pretty well; my 01' W210 does not have one either. Good luck.

I have never seen a washer under the spindle nut on any W126. I have done bearings a few times on different W126s and pulled parts from the junk yards.

I don't recall a washer on either of my cars, did both a couple of years ago.
