I wanted to remove the freewheel on my Western Flyer ten speed to check it out and restore or replace the chrome pie plate behind it. However I was not able to get the assembly off, even after a trip with it to the local bike shop. I did remove the gears leaving only the inner part screwed onto the hub. Not being able to disassemble any farther , I will just learn to live with the rusty backside of the pie plate. Now I need to reassemble the stack of gears onto the back part. I know how to use grease to hold the loose ball bearings, and there are a bunch of them, in place during reassembly. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
