Hi, here is a short video for the first-timers who want to open up their rear hub, but are concerned about messing it up. I'm no pro, but I wished there was such a video when I attempted to clean and lube my first rear hub. This is an Elgin Air-cooled hub made around 1939 I believe.....my error the first time was that there is a thin but wide clip that goes around the "end" of a component inside. Look for it, note where it is at, and possibly crimp it on when you go to assemble the rear hub when you are done cleaning and greasing the hub. That thin clip needs to be stationed right in one area.....it will cause problems if it is moving around on that shaft. Be sure that the surfaces that rub against one another to brake the bike are CLEAN of any grease etc. I used Acetone in the last step when I cleaned mine just before assembling it together. Enjoy,
