I couldn't find much on this so I thought I would share what I know. I bought a pair of XTR 960 V's from ebay for my polo bike build, that were not very smooth and I wanted to fix that. It's a good idea to keep one brake together for reference. Here's what I did:
First lift up the rubber cover. The two aluminum nuts are now visible. Next remove the top jam nut by holding the lower nut with a 17mm cone wrench, and use a 14mm cone wrench to loosen it. By unscrewing the top jam nut, it will lift the top of the parallelogram off, which is a press fit piece. Swing the parallelogram out of the way and remove the bottom nut.
The bearings are a two piece set, one having the captured balls and one race, and the other race. Disassemble the brake keeping the two pieces of the two sets of bearings together
(each bearing and race should remain a matched set).
