Geared hub question

[Vapor Trail]

I’m not using CTIS and the seal parts were kind of expensive so I didn’t buy them. Mine are damaged so can I remove the ring clip and seal and leave them out or do they perform some other function? Thank you

Anyone? It's the tiny clip and seal inside the steering bracket that bolts onto the geared hub and fits over the spindle extension.

There is no reason the seal is needed unless you are running CTIS, with the plug in the steering arm it's just like any other hub

OK thanks. I thought so but I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something and have to take it all apart.
