Subject: [CR]Phil Wood Hub r&r

I have an early 70's Phil Wood front hub that has a little bit of "shake" in it. I assume this means time for new bearings? I've never worked on one of these before and don't want to dig in without some guidance. I can get the bearings at a local supply house, but would like some advise on getting the bearings out. There's no allen key like newer cartridge hubs I've worked on. So I assume both "ends" are just pressed into the bearings, and can be driven out with a drift? Any tips before I break something would be appreciated. I did check the Wood site but could not find the info if it's there. Again this is an early hub, chrome steel center not stainless if that matters.

Thanks much, Jon Williams
