Sealed Bearings

[Fahrrad]

I know there is probably a thread here somewhere (please post and lock this one if so) about how to maintenance front and rear hubs with sealed bearings. To be more specific, I am looking to maintenance a coaster brake, grease/oil the brake and make sure all looks good. Again I know this is a newb question but I am just having trouble wrapping my head around the idea. Thanks for the help and for not heckling me too much.

Unthread the locking nut (if there is one, some have knurled axle threads instead) and inner bearing race from the sprocket side. now spin the drive bendix counter clockwise, as if braking, and it will screw out. Then slide the guts out on the brake arm side. Front works the same way, but without any guts. :|

Thanks, I will give it a try.
