Warn Hubs on D60
I am going to put Warn Standard or Premium hubs (havent decided yet) on my 94 F350. All the reading I have done has told mentioned that if I have the three screw auto hubs that I require a Warn 32721 spindle nut conversion kit. I dont have this, but I do have Auto hubs with five #25 TORX screws. Was there more than one type of auto hub put into these trucks?
My main question is what EXACTLY do I need to complete the project? I understand the Standard or Premium hubs, warn part number 32721, and Warn part # 11714. Is this accurate? I assume it is but I dont want to buy stuff I dont need!
Anyone done this to theirs that has insight?
Thanks
Thad

Just buy the hubs.....everything you need is in the box (internal hubs, cap,bolts and o-ring for cap). Just for grins check out the mile marker hubs for d60 with stainless caps...... I have run them on three 1 ton trucks and never had a issue. They seem to be a bit heaver than the warn Premium hubs and much cheaper (VERY GOOD HUB). I thing Part #449ss

You may need to pull the locking hubs apart and see which style of bearing retention you have. Or buy the spindle nut kit and return it if you don't need it. If you have the inner nut, lock washer and outer nut, you don't need the kit. I've seen them both ways between the 3 and 5 bolt auto hub caps.

If you need the spindle nut socket to remove them, you probably don't need the spindle nut kit. It already has the standard nuts on it.

Well, I went with the standard hubs since they WERE on sale at NAPA and they had them in stock (which is great for a impatient guy like me...).
I installed them and now I have 4WD......it was broken when I got it.....
I am a happy camper...
Also, if you have 5 torxs screws on your auto hubs you DO NOT need the adapter.....at least I didnt...
Thanks RCrawler and guys....
