When I did mine a couple of weeks ago, it was the first time I had ever taken a manual locking hub apart. It is pretty straight forward especially once you get all the parts out so that you can see them. I was following directions in a Haynes manual and it was very accurate as to the parts and steps that I had to follow. Make sure you closely follow the directions for putting it back together. There is a set proceedure for torque on the locknut when you reinstall.

Good Luck.
