Reattached the nosegear and then balanced the nosegear wheel and tire using a motorcycle balancing stand that I purchased at Harbor Freight. Added some self adhesive balancing weights. Did the same with the left main wheel and the right main wheel. The left main was terribly out of balance. The right main not so much so.
Attached the wheels and then tightened them in accordance with the instructions from MATCO. This is DIFFERENT than one would expect. MATCO says to hand tighten and then TIGHTEN to the next cotter pin hole (even tho the wheel does not run free). This is to prevent the seal from spining. Did it and inserted the cotter pin. You have to put a nice sweeping bend in the pin to get it started in the hole. Re-assembled the brake calipers.
Here is a link to a VAF post explaining why you tighten these bearings DIFFERENTLY
