[Closed] Rear pivot - Giant Anthem

I've just bought a replacement set of rear pivot bolts from my 08 Anthem as the original collapsed. The original has the threaded nut, a 'washer' and the bearing race, with the washer seemingly 'stuck' on. The new set has a separate threaded nut, washer and bearing race. Do I need to glue the washer to the bearing race, or just fit it all and hope years of muck will keep it there?

Cheers!

When you tighten the bolt will it not simply pull everything into place and hold it there?

Hard to understand what the problem is and chance of some photo's?

Don't know if its the same setup, but when I stripped the rear end of my 2011 anthem down, nothing was stuck together.

Cheers

Cheers folks. I'm pretty sure the washer/spacer doesn't need fixed in anyway and that tightening it all up together will do the trick, I just wanted some reassurance that I wasn't missing something obvious!

If you can't pull it off then it should be OK!
