In another aspect of the present invention, this is accomplished by providing a method of assembly of a housed bearing. The assembly steps comprise providing a split outer ring with two unequal portions, retaining the split outer ring over an inner raceway with rolling elements therebetween to form a subassembly, positioning the subassembly in a housing base such that the ends of the outer ring are all contained within the housing base, and thereafter, mounting a housing cover over the subassembly.
