Also, daniell did you end up using a 10mm Allen key and remove the large bolt holding the freehub body on?

The way that the dust cover stays attached to the non-drive side cone reminds me of how some Deore LX mountain hubs I have are configured. My Dura Ace 7400 hub wheelsets have that plastic dust cap with a clever overlapping port that can be clicked open or closed. When opened, you can put the tip of a micro grease gun over the hole and shoot some more grease in there. I learned my lesson about overgreasing though. I had a lot of excess grease that forced itself back out around the joint between the axle and the dust cover.
