1987 ford 4 wheel drive
I have a 1987 ford f150 4 wheel drive. I can not find locking hubs for my truck. This year model is the only year that ford put flange mont for their hubs. I have one that is broke. I would like to just change this headache to the new stuff. Does anybodt know what parts I will need to change this, or does anybody have the flange mount that I need?

I am not sure exactly what you mean by flange mounts, but I think that is what is on my 88 Bronco II. The hubs (at least the switch, outer part or whatever it is called) comes off with the wheel. It may be the same. Look at some of the Rangers and Bronco II around that year and see if it matches. I am pretty sure that the Bronco II and Rangers use a different bolt pattern than the fullsize. But maybe they used the same for that year dunno.

I have a set of those flange style hubs sitting in the garage, the F150 ones are 87/part of 88 only F150/Bronco only...
I'd reccomend swapping to regular hubs, but, it won't be cheap, you will have to change EVERYTHING from the stub axle out, stub axle, spindle, wheel bearings, hub, brake rotor, wheel studs(yes, they are different too) and of course the lockout itself.
