Dumb rookie coaster brake mistake.

Finally riding a big boys bike
I've disassembled and cleaned the rear hub on my '65 Spaceliner. I didn't take pics as I dove into a take-it-apart frenzy. I knew better. I always take pics, label/bag stuff, take notes. But not this time. Really dumb. Now I have a whole bunch of pieces with no real idea of how to put it back together. It's a Bendix that's marked RB2. Is there a parts diagram available? Haven't been able to find it specifically, on the internet. Shame on me. I feel really dumb.

rebuild instructions for that hub in vol 1

 
Amazingly, I got it all back together - the exploded view did the trick. Then I discovered...because I'm re-lacing the rim...I had to take it all apart again to access the spoke holes on the hub's flanges. So I'm getting plenty of practice. And yeah - RJ The Bike Guy had a useful youtube on it.
 
Did you just remove the rear cog to access the spoke holes?
