you'd lose.
and you need to get the bearings seated better before you re-install that ring with PIN SPANNER HOLES in it.
PS.. i'm not the one that took apart a nearly new freewheel for no reason.
how dry were the bearings in the axle/hub assy.?
i've seen some that had next to zero grease, others with enough, but low grade, grease.
did you check the axle for bending? quite common on those low end hubs.
