Locking hubs/vacuum...again

Hey guys and gals. First off I love this forum. I have learned loads of things pertaining to my beloved 02' Excursion V10. You all have kept money in my pockets instead of the filthy dealer's pockets multiple times, (and my wife thanks you for that).
(disclaimer...I have searched everywhere before this post...I swear)

Here are my situation's,
I installed my new Mile Marker hubs today..(very easy) Can someone post a picture, or tell me exactly what which vacuum hose to occlude off? and do I have to do it for both sides? (sorry if if sound stupid)

Next, after I installed the hubs, they are much shorter than that of stock. The new hubs are not flush with the beauty cap, is there a fix for this, or another model that I can buy so that it doesn't have such a gap.

Lastly, My RES dvd player is on the fritz, does anyone have a model number for these or a replacement option, My kids love the DVD system, frankly the wife and I like it more. (5 screaming kids will even give God a headache)

as always, I appreciate your imput

All aftermarket hubs are going to be recessed in from the caps, I have aftermarket wheels so my caps aren't as deep and fit hubs nicely, As far as the vacume the solenoid is in the passenger fender and has two hoses and a electrical connector, unplug the line coming from the engine and cap it, that's all you have to do...
