In a construction in which a double row rolling bearing and a constant
velocity joint are mounted to a hub wheel, a fixing ring fixedly mounted
to a vehicle-outer side opening of the hub wheel is sandwiched between a
vehicle-outer side end face of an outer ring shaft of the constant
velocity joint and a bolt integrally mounted to the shaft in the axial
direction, thereby coupling the outer ring of the constant velocity joint
to the hub wheel. In this case, a simple coupling operation only for
mounting the bolt to the shaft suffices, and a pre-load that has been
applied to the rolling bearing is maintained invariably.
