manual hub install

Just Got Mile Marker manual hubs this week and installed the today. This was one of the easiest mod's I have done.

<table id="ncode_imageresizer_warning_1" class="ncode_imageresizer_warning" width="400"><tbody><tr><td class="td1" width="20"></td><td class="td2">Click this bar to view the full image.</td></tr></tbody></table>

First remove the center cap.
Then remove the snap ring that holds the factory hub on.


<table id="ncode_imageresizer_warning_2" class="ncode_imageresizer_warning" width="400"><tbody><tr><td class="td1" width="20"></td><td class="td2">Click this bar to view the full image.</td></tr></tbody></table>

Next pull the factory hub out. Mine came out pretty easy. Some you may have to help out.

<table id="ncode_imageresizer_warning_3" class="ncode_imageresizer_warning" width="400"><tbody><tr><td class="td1" width="20"></td><td class="td2">Click this bar to view the full image.</td></tr></tbody></table>

Then remove the 2 screws that hold outside hub housing on and sit it aside.

<table id="ncode_imageresizer_warning_9" class="ncode_imageresizer_warning" width="400"><tbody><tr><td class="td1" width="20"></td><td class="td2">Click this bar to view the full image.</td></tr></tbody></table>

<table id="ncode_imageresizer_warning_4" class="ncode_imageresizer_warning" width="400"><tbody><tr><td class="td1" width="20"></td><td class="td2">Click this bar to view the full image.</td></tr></tbody></table>

Install the Mile Marker hub into the axle. You'll have to wiggle some to get the splines to line up.

<table id="ncode_imageresizer_warning_5" class="ncode_imageresizer_warning" width="400"><tbody><tr><td class="td1" width="20"></td><td class="td2">Click this bar to view the full image.</td></tr></tbody></table>

Push it in as far as it will go. Then install the retaining ring. Put in the open end first.

<table id="ncode_imageresizer_warning_10" class="ncode_imageresizer_warning" width="400"><tbody><tr><td class="td1" width="20"></td><td class="td2">Click this bar to view the full image.</td></tr></tbody></table>

<table id="ncode_imageresizer_warning_6" class="ncode_imageresizer_warning" width="400"><tbody><tr><td class="td1" width="20"></td><td class="td2">Click this bar to view the full image.</td></tr></tbody></table>

<table id="ncode_imageresizer_warning_7" class="ncode_imageresizer_warning" width="400"><tbody><tr><td class="td1" width="20"></td><td class="td2">Click this bar to view the full image.</td></tr></tbody></table>

And finally reinstall outside hub housing.

<table id="ncode_imageresizer_warning_8" class="ncode_imageresizer_warning" width="400"><tbody><tr><td class="td1" width="20"></td><td class="td2">Click this bar to view the full image.</td></tr></tbody></table>

The total job took about a half an hour. That includes set up and clean up. If you have the vaccum line still you should cap them off so you won't have a vaccum leak. <!-- / message -->

Awesome job with all the photos. I have the warn manuals and like knowing that my hubs are locked and even more important unlocked when I want.

Great write up and pictures! I did the same mod a couple of months ago. It is nice to know they are unlocked and locked. I was sick of trying to figure out the auto hubs as well.

Your welcome and glad you like the pic's. I installed as is. I think the snap ring that came with the hub is strong enough to hold the hub in. On a update/side note. Had to lock in 4 wheel drive Friday and it was a GREAT feeling to have the hubs actually work.

I ask about the rings because some guys have rattling issue in bumpy road , and they changed the rings with the old ones and some of them orders a advance rings kit from mile marker to stops the rattling .

I haven't had any rattling issues. I at first thought about using the factory ring but with the 2 peices stick out you won't be able to the outer housing on.
