My Fien lhd FreesCoaster took me at least five cranks to actually pedal. Watched the vid an took most of the grease out an now she rolls beautifully. Could I have had too much grease?

+James Gonzalez I don't think you can really have too much grease inside a freecoaster. Maybe it just needed to be cleaned out... either way glad the vid helped!

I always found it was best to tap the axle out when the driver is still in the hub, means that it always comes out straight. You can dent the bearing seat if the bearing comes out even slightly crooked. Any particular reason for taking it out first?

+Philip Gibbons you have to remove the driver first because it is "screwed" in, if you hammer the axle it won't come out if you haven't removed the driver first

So, just in case anybody else runs into the problem I just did: the freehub section of the new style axle is bigger than the old one. so if you have a new hub, and end up with an older kit, your freehub bearings won't touch the axle. which is no bueno.

So what do you do when you can't get your freehub body to "click" back on? You're popping it on with just a slight press of your palm, but I'm putting mine on the floor and really pressing down on it, and nothing happens.

4:01 WARNING! The axles from the Hope pro 2 EVO hubs are different! (they are thicker!) you can´t use the old axles nor the "new design axle" as described here for EVO hubs!

Hi ! you are the only person in the world to have the true guts to actually disassemble a freehub body. not even shitmanos website has such a thing. they do not even have pictures on what a freehub looks like inside. as I said before you are a heaven sent. god bless you and your family. you make a good teacher. I just love how detailed your instructions are. keep up the good work.

+RJ The Bike Guy I had to replace the bearings, and you are right, the races are worn out, Just wondering if I could extend its life a little further , I will just replace the hub, I really appreciate your help and advice, thank you very much.

RJ The Bike Guy commented on 21 Apr 2016
The shims set the spacing at the factory. Have you replaced the bearings? It could be the bearings are worn. If you have new bearings and everything is tightened down and you still have excessive play, the races are probably worn. Then you might want to look at replacing the freehub.

+RJ The Bike Guy Thank you very much for your interest in my question. I just want to take an excessive amount of play that is present in the hub, if I take out a shim it becomes to tight so just wondering if I could get different shims with different thickness, thanks for the advise, I will get old hubs for parts.

So all of a sudden the freehub on my MTB started to be really sticky. I decided I should try to fix it myself, and looking for how to do it, I found your videos on the topic. Inspired by you I just today made a dissassembly tool from a 21mm socket. Starting to take things apart, I also found that the rear axle turned kinda rough in the wheel. So I thought I'd have to replace those bearings too. Continuing on, the stud that holds the freehub body came off easy, almost too easy. My tool fit nicely in the slots in the cone/race of the freehub body. But it was on there loose, real loose. But I still wasn't too alarmed. So I continued my investigation and took the outer part off, with little ball bearings going everywhere. I then proceeded to try to take the central part off from the hub, but it was really stuck on there. So I looked at it closer and saw the the damn thing was cracked! The center part of the freehub was cracked! I put my 10mm allen wrench in it and started tipping it back and forth to break it free, which worked. And at that point I got another surprise, the mating splines in the wheel hub are damaged from the broken freehub core! So right now I don't even know if I'll be able to put a new freehub on there. I might have to file a bit on the splines or something. Sigh!

I guess the core of the freehub being cracked is what caused the axle to run rough too by the way.
