Default Help! Wheel bearing/spacer problems on a 1971 Super Beetle

Hello folks.. I've been watching this forums looking for miscellaneous
things
from time to time on my vw beetle.... I bought this 1971 super beetle from a
junk yard
and trying to fix it up. The rear wheel was taken apart before I got it and
half assembled.
I have been able to scrounge around and find miscellaneous parts.. but am
unsure as to
how it actually goes together (spacers, o rings and so forth) I
dissassembled the other side
and it doesn't look like what I've seen in my manuals (they leave out the
inner side) Is there an online assembly
drawing or where can I go for one? I have seen a few different versions of
how to put it
together, but it seems they're leaving parts out in comparison to others. I
have yet to
see a full drawing showing both the inner and outer bearings and spacers..
Please Help!!!!
Steve

See this article on my web site:

Also, Vic has a nice exploded view from the parts fiche:

and it has P/N's.
