Abstract
A compact wheel end for an automotive vehicle includes a housing, a hub having a drive flange and a spindle projecting from the flange into the housing, and an antifriction bearing located between the housing and the hub spindle. The spindle at its inboard end has an abutment, and the bearing has an inner race that is spaced from the abutment. Captured between the abutment and inner race is a splined coupler ring. It abuts the inner race at a back face on the inner race and has a beveled end that extends into an annular recess in the inner race. The drive flange of the hub has a shallow recess that receives the outboard end of the housing. The annular recess in the inner race and the shallow recess in the drive flange render the wheel end highly compact.
