Default how to service a DaBomb headspin hub?

Hi guys, newbie here,
i bought a used rimset (alex dx32 with dabomb headspin hubs)
after a few rides i noticed that when i turn the cap of each end, the feeling is kinda grrity, but theres no play or wiggle,
should i replace the cartrige bearings or is there another way to remove the grrityness feeling when my hub freewheels?

how do i replace the cartrige bearings? my friend told me that i just have to remove the caps and just hammer down (with a wood 2x4 or a rubber mallet) the shaft till the cartrige bearing pops out, is this correct?
can i just use any replacement cartrige bearing from a bearing shop?

tnx guys!
