ABSTRACT:
A wheel end hub assembly for a motor vehicle incorporating mechanical retention features. The assembly accurately and positively orients the motor vehicle brake component, such as a disc brake rotor or brake drum with respect to its wheel hub. Accordingly, the machining operations for the brake component braking surfaces can be accurately based from a datum surface of the hub. The assembly incorporates a retention nut threaded onto the wheel mounting bolts which exerts a clamping force on the brake component and further establishes the relative positions of the hub and brake component. The retention nut features a generally conical surface which contacts a generally conical surface of the brake component to establish the radial and rotational relative position of these components.
