The fixed disk 38 is assembled fixedly within the bore 52 of the housing 22 in facing engagement with the rotatable disk 36. The seal 40 is assembled within an opening 54 of the housing and is placed in sealing and retaining engagement with the fixed disk 38. The retainer 32 is placed on the exposed shank portion 74 of the stem 24 and the reversible stop 30 is moved over the shank portion 74 and past the retainer 32 for engagement with splines 82 on the shank portion. The retainer 32 precludes unintentional removal of the stop 30 from the stem 24 while allowing intentional removal thereof.
