New to me 1996 F250 truck, need part advice

Hi Everyone! I recently bought a 1996 Ford F250 with the 7.3 International diesel engine. It appears to have a Dana 50 front axle (pn 610609-2).

I am looking to replace the front rotors, ujoints (at hub/axle), and put in manual locking hubs. I am having a hard time finding information right now on what the correct part numbers are for my truck and judging which brand is better.

Looking to order the parts soon, so would really appreciate it if you could help me gather all the parts I need to order.

Thanks!

spicer spicer spicer spicer spicer spicer spicer spicer.

as for the hubs, stay away from china stuff. even jy hubs are a good option, in the unlikely event they are broken upon removal just move on to the next one. do the ball joints while youre in there too, did I already say spicer?

After some more research, I've picked up a set of spicer u-joints, motorcraft BRR-4 rotors, and plan to get the mile marker manual hubs.

I was under the impression that the BRR-4 will come with the wheel lugs and inner hub assembly, but it did not. Not sure what the condition of that part is, but the truck has 260K miles on it...

Also, what do you mean by the ball joints? Is there a part number I can reference?

Tks!

I went with the Mile Marker SS hubs when I did mine. Don't forget you'll need 2 each spindle nuts and washers to do the conversion.

the Spicer numbers are;
Spindle nut----------621027
nut and pin assy-----660568
washer--------------621028
