Put it back together the same way I've done it the last 14 years. I could not find a single thing that was wrong, or out of shape, or position.. But whatever it as, I couldn't find it, so imagine my surprise that when I put it all back together, I got the proper torque on the cone nut, and the wheel still turns by hand. Obviously, I must have done something wrong, but damned if I know what.
