A wheel assembly has a wheel with a hub. A rotation surface disposed in the hub has a bore. A sleeve insertable in the bore of the rotation surface has an outer surface with a circumferential groove and first and second opposite axial ends. The first axial end has a shoulder extending radially outward. A resilient ring disposed in the circumferential groove is compressible to a compression diameter sufficient to enable the sleeve to be inserted in the bore of the rotation surface. The resilient ring is expandable to an expansion diameter greater than the inner surface diameter of the bore of the rotation surface when unconstrained. The circumferential groove is spaced from the shoulder at a distance sufficient to enable the resilient ring to expand to the expansion diameter when the sleeve is inserted in the bore of the rotation surface and the shoulder is adjacent the rotation surface.
