I'm not sure there is any FW that is easier than another. I just rebuilt one a couple weeks ago and the planet cages, pawls, and various parts are more difficult to assemble than an AW. For instance, if you don't get the index marks correct, the hub will not work correctly. Anyway, I'd give some thought before tearing into a FW.
