    Rear Sprocket Question

    I think I installed the new rear sprocket correctly but wanted another look from someone else. The completely flat side of the sprocket is facing out, is this correct? I know I need to fold the flaps out but wanted to make sure things were right first before doing it.



    While trying to put the sprocket on I kept dropping screws inside the hub area so I pulled it off and found this view. How does the insides look to you all? Do I need to pull it apart and regrease it?

      Thanks Jeep. I wasn't sure if it mattered so I can change it if needed.

      Yea and that grease looks pretty bad...didn't know if it needed changing too
