Success! Thanks!! I Was a little worried when it started to make that click noise and though I broke something but it did come off with some major effort lol
so the "cone" you unscrew over the bearings is very small and looks to have a metal part still attached to the wheel sorta over the top of the bearings. is this some odd type of cone? Much different than the videos I have watched. I was able to get the bearings out but sorta have to fish them out between the metal cone and the cup on the hub.
How do I figure out what type of free hub I need to buy? pulled the free hub off the rim with a 10mm allen wrench but cant find any numbers or anything on it. The the hub where the axle goes through does say FH-RM40.
