Look at the parts diagram to see where the pieces fit.
Online if you don't have a book.
Mount the axle collar, sprocket portion of the hub, small spacer on the right, and finger tighten with large nut.
Add the rubber cushions.
Raise the wheel with brake plate and insert axle from the left side.

Into the right side of the hub, or the left side of the sprocket drive

No problem!

I just re-assembled the rear of on old Elsinore and got it wrong...and I had the parts manual!

It worked perfectly in my head....just didn't work out on the bike!

But practice makes perfect they say.
