Re:
right, i thought i'd do a bit of a continuation of the stuff i'd learnt by proving that this stuff can be done at home with mostly normal tools.
first thing was my friend Ben's fox forks, a lower service. these are pretty much the same as rockshox for a lower service, one small difference is the fact that the rebound adjuster has a grub screw on it, so don't forget to remove this before trying to pull the adjuster off.

the parts in the middle of this pic are the parts from inside the hub, 2 pawls and springs, the axle in 2 parts and the freehub body and one washer and that's it!
