Abstract
An assembling method includes fitting an entire range of the guide portion to the stem section with a gap therebetween, and inserting a bolt from an outboard side through a bolt insertion hole formed in the hub wheel. In this state, a maximum inclination angle of the bolt with respect to the hub wheel is set to be larger than a maximum inclination angle of the outer joint member with respect to the hub wheel. The method also includes connecting the bearing and the constant velocity universal joint to each other by threadedly engaging and fastening the bolt into a bolt hole formed in the stem section.
