Can someone please point me to the thread on how to remove auto-locking hubs? I found one once but for the life of me I can't find it again, and getting this auto hub off is driving me nuts. I think I'm missing a snap ring or something somewhere. Got the cover off, but the only snap ring I could see was holding on the big spring assembly. Pried that snap ring out & the whole thing just kind of exploded. Can't figure out how to get anything else out tho, the hub wiggles around but ain't coming out.
 
There is a small metal plate on the outer edge of the round part of the hub that the cover screws bolt into. Pry that plate off and you will see 2 metal pegs.squeeze them together to compress the lock ring and pull the hub out.. It helps to screw one of the cover screws in in to pull on.
