Do you have the thru axle or qr version? Should be the same either way.

1) insert a large flat bladed screwdriver into the corresponding non drive side cut out after you have removed the end cap. i think it is a 17mm cone wrench required on the drive side end cap. use that in conjunction with the screwdriver and remove the end cap from the axle.

2) now you should be able to push out the axle and non drive side bearing by hand via applying force on the drive side of the axle. if it won't go, re thread the drive side end cap partially and tap lightly with a rubber mallet. the axle should now be out with the non drive side bearing.

3) now remove the freehub body by hand. make sure to not lose the axle/freehub shim or any springs/pawls that may have becmoe damaged or loose.

4) clean, inspect, replace parts if necessary, reassemble.

I have had both versions of this hub. I know if you remove the cassette on either, then unscrew the drive side locknut, the cassette is easy to take off. and the circlip to remove the bearings will expose itself, along with a simple freehub sytstem.

Nope that whole assembly should come off together. Once time my freehub body was like almost siezed in there and I had to put the cassette back on and pry behind it with a screwdriver against the spokes as a lever to get it off. I dont know why it was all siezed but everything is fine now.
