If there's no sign of play when you move the rim side to side, and the axle runs smoothly when you rotate it, then the bearings are probably ok and you'll just need to clean out the ratchet and pawl assembly.Fitting new pawl springs is a good idea whilst it's apart, a thin layer of grease is all that's required,ideally an EP(extreme pressure)type, and don't forget the 2mm spacer washer when you put it back together.
