Steel freehub body, 6001 bearings, but there is a circlip in there apparently, so I can't just bash 'em both out...
Thare is probally a Hope tool, but I'd prefer a homebuild option unless it's really made much easier.

I forget exactly where the circlip is now, but if you give it a good clean you should be able to see if it's on the outside to remove it first, otherwise it's inside somewhere. A drift of some sort (Big scredriver) and a hammer will get the bearings out easy enough. I think the outer one comes out first, and the circlip is inside?
Heat the hub. Makes life much easier - tie a rag around it and pour boiling water over it
Sounds like an XC hub, not a Pro 2?
If so I was right, drawing here -
The end cap (Part No. 13) just pulls off, then insert a scredriver from the inside and push the tube (11) to one side to tap the bearing out, remove tube and circlip, remove inner bearing. Tap new bearings in with a socket that just fits the OUTER race on the new bearing

Thanks Peter, that's my evening sorted.
No worries ๐
It's pretty easy really, although TJs suggestion is a good one. I seem to remember I had to use some force to remove the old bearings!
