1991 Automatic hubs ?

Guys, I don't get on here alot, and am sorry to always ask questions, but I am attempting to change out my auto hubs for lock-outs. I have lost my Haynes manual, and am not having much luck finding info on removing the autos. From what I'm gathering, there's a big inside retainer that I'm supposed to pinch with needle-nose pliers while pulling on the hub lock. The diagrams that came with the new hubs are for a Chevy...go figure. I can't get the dang thing apart. Any advice or links to good drawings will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

There should be a snap ring around the inside of the wheel hub. It is like thin wire with no ends on it that you can grab. Usually covered with grease and hard to see. You will need a very small screwdriver or pick to get under it and pry it out. Once that is out the locking hub should pull out.

Thanks, I got the old hubs out, but now need the torque specs for the spindle nuts if anybody has them.
