The anti-rotation device includes a first feature engaging the outer ring and a second feature engaging the bearing housing. The features limit the rotation of the outer ring within the bearing seat. The first feature has an internal surface for engagement the outer ring and the second feature includes an engagement surface for engaging a protrusion extending from the bearing housing.
