Removing, Overhauling, and Installing Pedals

I just ordered some new MKS touring pedals. I've never done any work on pedals before so I'm really excited to remove my old All-City track pedals (too tiny!), overhaul my new MKS pedals, and install them. I've done a bit of searching and have found a few good resources. I just wanted to make a post that gathers all the pertinent information that I've found into one place for future searchers. Hopefully, I can just save someone a little time.

The Park Tool website has an article about pedal removal and installation. Bicycle tutor also has a video on replacing pedals.

For the overhauling I've found a MKS pedal overhauling guide by Panthers007 in an old thread and "How to repack your pedals, especially if they are MKS Sylvans" by queerpunk in another. (Thanks Panthers007 and queerpunk!)

If you have anything to add about working on pedals please add it below. Thanks!
