A wheel bearing assembly, wherein a wheel bearing including an inner bearing ring and an outer bearing ring is arranged in driving connection with a universal joint, is formed with the inner bearing ring consisting of a piece which has been initially formed as a unitary member with dimensions so as to be ready for installation in the bearing assembly, with the unitary member being subsequently ruptured to form a split therein by application of pressure, thereby to form the inner bearing ring in two parts. The wheel bearing consists of a dual-row ball bearing and the inner bearing ring is formed with two races, with the split extending between the two races. A recess is formed between the two parts of the inner bearing within which there engages part of the universal joint to effect torque transmitting engagement between the joint and the wheel assembly, with the two parts of the inner bearing ring being clamped together within an assembled state, with the split therebetween extending through the recess. |
