Technical Caddy Lifter disassembly

From a '40 Flathead, thought I would clean these up as they look great.
From the inventors of the Hydraulic lifter...
Good learning project too.
Has anyone done this? Does the cup & ball come out if present?

 

I did that 7 years ago...but my memory only lasts about two weeks.

I did not take any pictures of the lifters apart. But I recall that I did take them all apart...

 

You always (make that Never) cease to amaze me...
