Abstract
A wheel bearing assembly for supporting a wheel and apportioned vehicle mass is provided. The assembly includes a spindle member defining a rotational axis with a flange for attaching a wheel and a hub assembly. A bearing assembly has inner and outer bearing members in spaced relationship from one another with a plurality of rolling members interposed between the bearing members to permit relative rotation between the bearing members about the rotational axis. The spindle is deformed around the inner bearing member to prevent axial translation between the spindle and the inner bearing member about the rotational axis. An outer surface of the inner bearing member has a geometric feature for receiving a force applied from a tool during the deformation of the spindle thereby reducing radial deflections of the inner bearing member during the process of deforming the spindle.
