Most Shimano Freehub bodies are interchangeable.
Can you change your freehub body?
You can either buy a new freehub body or if you’re lucky your local bike shop or bike recycling project may have a stash! Your replacement freehub body needs to have the same interface as your old one (meaning the same spline pattern) so it can fit onto your old hub.
Are all Freehubs removable?
Most rear hubs allow the freehub body to be removed. The body can then be flushed with solvent for cleaning, dried, lubricated with oil, and then reinstalled. Much of the process is similar to a hub overhaul.
