I was just kidding about the hammer.
sometimes delicate hands do the trick.

I finally figured it out. No corrosion and everything looked good. I cleaned it up and greased everything. Thanks guys. I wish there were disassembly instructions in the reel box

This link shows you how to open up a Revo Inshore. Aside from some minor differences in specific parts (i.e. the number of roller bearings, braking system, etc), all of the Revos are fundamentally the same in construction and assembly. I have 3 Revos and they're all basically the same.

This site also has a whole lot of other threads, step-by-step pictures, etc that are very helpful for the DIY person.
