Need help with hubs.

Hi all,
I'm in trouble.
I repaced the rotors on my 93 f-150 4x4.
but I screwed up ,got it all together and now can pull on the cover of the auto hubs and it falls off the truck!
any idea what I dad wrong.
It has 5 screws holding it on,but it all fell off. the rotor is secure to the truck,and the wheel will not fall off,but the auto hub did.
please help.
Thanks russ

Did you put it back together the way you took it apart? Did all the snap rings click in?

should be a big ring at the end of the hub *** that is part of the rotor that holds the locking *** in before the outside cover goes on
