Replacing Hubs
My 95 F-150 4 wheel drive isn't working.The auto hubs were previously replaced with manual lock outs.Transfer case is engaging and front drive shaft turning.Advice needed in replacing hubs! Is there any maintenance that could be needed,or do the always need replaced? Would appreciate any advice on replacing these things!
Thanks,
Jim

Replacing Hubs
Double_Ten,
they may need cleaning and a lube;
here is what Warn says:
"...What type, and how much grease do I use to lube my Warn Hubs?
When new: Warn Hubs are assembled at the factory with the proper amount of grease so an additional amount is not required. When servicing: A "light coat" of molylube #1 will suffice. (Note) Hubs should be serviced at the same manufacturers suggested intervals as the wheel bearings.

here is Tony's site on the Warn conversion from autos to manuals; maybe this will help you when looking at the hubs for damage or...:
