Hammering motor parts is generally not a good idea...

Ive had this kind of problem with those Royals as well, the only suggestion I have for that would be to just gently work with it until it decides to cooperate. Keep manipulating it and wiggling it around and it will eventually work, patience is a must with old vacs as they can be contrary. As for the brush wires the glue should hold but I would recommend gorilla glue since it holds up to heat alot better (I used gorilla glue in my dishwasher and it has held up under the heat very well)

Well, if the armature is hard to turn on its own those bearings are going to need oil. I will have to check on my old Royal but im pretty sure there are oil ports where you can add oil to it. I think everyone recomends three in one oil. If you can oil, dont overdo it. Try a drop at a time to see if it frees up.
