When you go to regrease the REAR bearings, you will see they are SMALL ... like having front bearings in the rear, as I recall.
I think I made a half-hearted effort to fit larger bearings and a different cone (on a different axle), but figured it wasn't worth the effort at that point in time ...
Obviously, not many cog sets available ... can't recall the threading on the lockring ...
