the side of the hub shown in the pic is the fixed side. two different threads. one for cog, one for lockring. right and left hand threads respectively... the free side is the other side. one thread only, right hand thread. please dont get it wrong. and yep, buy a free wheel tool too. cheap lithium grease from the garage/halfords willdo for everything. thick as you like and never washes away. ever. clean the headset before you grease it and the grit thats probably in there. dont get the mks tugs from the site you linked costhey are for track ends. which youdont have. bmx ones'll do ya fine. like these or similar....
