Type-44: pressing hub into front wheel bearing

[Livolsi, Stephane]

Hi Ameer.  I just did a rear one on my type 44 and I think it is similar
to the fronts.  There should be a snap ring in a groove in the hub.  The
bearing gets pressed in until it's snug up against the snap ring, then
the second snap ring can be put in.  Like I said, this was on the rear,
but I am quite certain the front is the same.
