Centre Bearing; GSF replacement..?

Hello Guys,
I just fitted a relacement prop centre bearing and carrier on and I was a little surprised at how easy the bearing slid onto the shaft..??

The old one needed to be pulled off and was very tight but this new one is easily slid on and off..??

It says in the Wis that you're supposed to press it on (which to me implies that it should be a very tight fit) and that it's held in place by the front (smaller)

locking cap but on this set,the only thing that's a tight fit,is the front(locking) cap..??

The rear cap is also a loose fit..??

I got the bearing and carrier complete from GSF and the front and rear caps from the stealership..??

Cosser..!!
