The freehub body on my shimano hub has worn, and despite my lbs over - tightening the lockring ( :evil: ), the cassette is still movin' around.

So the tricky part is finding a replacement freehub body for a deore FH-M475 hub, pruduced around 2004.

Whilst this one shouldn't fit - according to CRC, might it anyway? :roll:

    any shimano one will fit. (of the correct speed 8/9).

    Or try and find an older Deore hub which you can canibalise for the freehub, and also get a spare axle, cones etc thrown in. Sometimes cheaper than just buying a freehub.
