The weather here has been bad with windy and snowy conditions so it may be a while before I can get back to painting the frame. This evening I took about a half hour and overhauled the hub on the "swamp thing" wheel. I removed the nut on one side of the axel and then was able to pull out the whole assembly. I removed the barings and then cleaned all the parts with some Pedro's citrus cleaner. After cleaning, I put everything back together and made certain that there was plenty of grease on all the moving parts. With a fixed wheel this procedure was pretty simple and it went a lot smoother than I thought it would.
