Broken pawl and spring in Salsa 197 hub

Karate Monkey said:
@Patrick check both the ratchet ring teeth and the pawl pockets to find the missing piece of metal (actually, check the pawl pockets, anyway--they often become deformed if a pawl breaks). If your ratchet ring is broken you need to find both a new ring AND a tool to remove the old one, which is typically screwed in, but are sometimes pressed/need a slide-hammer blind puller to remove. At any rate, if the ring is damaged, the hub is probably a total write off.

good call - one of the other pawls looks like it was put on a grinder.
pockets look ok -
i'm not sure what the drive ring should look like!!! Compared to some of the images on the goog,
it looks fine.

the loose piece of metal looked like a needle bearing - I can't find it now !
but the covers are tight so i can't see it escaping.

I like their blue.

then add spokes. And having you build it. ?

rather find $15 pawls and spring kit until I blow up the spokes? Then I can go big and get the jims’ approvals.

Seriously... I have replaced 1 chain due to stretch.... then there was this fire thing.... for real ?
Everything I have replaced so far... was for upgrade... or at least the perspective of an upgrade ?

Salsa got back to me today - they are sending some pawls over.

Also informed me that the Sram 746 shell uses the same freehub body.

Anyone have a Sram XD driver and end cap they want to sell?
sram part FW4558
