Aspects of the disclosure provide a wheel assembly for a vehicle that includes a wheel, an axle that fits into the center of the wheel creating an interface between the wheel and the axle, and a plurality of pins that are pressed into a plurality of holes at the interface of the wheel and the axle. The pins may lock the wheel to the axle and carry a dynamic load and a static load of the vehicle. Additionally, the wheel assembly may include a bearing and a bearing end cap that applies a force to the bearing by pushing against the wheel with a plurality of screws that are threaded into the end of the axle through the bearing end cap. The force may be generated on the bearing end cap by tightening the screws with the force transferred through the wheel to load the bearing.
