Distance piece outer
Outer distance piece for the rear wheel axle assembly, catalog number 37-3746.
This is the outer distance piece for the rear wheel, part number 37-3746, also listed under the older W3746 form. It shows up in the rear wheel figures in the parts books, where it sits on the axle to keep the hub and bearing assembly positioned correctly as the wheel is drawn up tight.

Distance pieces like this one are simple but easy to overlook when a rear wheel is apart for a tire change or bearing service. Get them out of order or leave one out and the wheel won't sit right when you tighten everything back down.
Our catalog listings for this one run from the early to mid 1970s. If you're rebuilding a rear wheel from this era, it's worth checking this spacer against the rest of your axle stack before you put it all back together.
