ABSTRACT:
An improved spindle is for a heavy duty truck or trailer axle of the type which includes a support for a wheel mounted thereon at a pair of axially disposed, independently mounted inner and outer tapered-roller bearing for rotation about an axis of the spindle. The improvement includes providing a transition portion between an intermediate portion of the spindle which receives the inner tapered-roller bearing thereon and a larger major portion of the axle which first transition portion has a frusto-conical outer surface. A collar has a frusto-conical inner surface and is fixedly mounted on the first transition portion to locate a transverse surface thereon adjacent the intermediate portion to act as a bearing stop for the inner tapered-roller bearing.
