Manual hub maintenance

I saw a link to Guzzle's procedure for auto hub maintenance. Is maintenance required for the manual hubs? Is there a link that you folks know of?
Thanks in advance!

Maintenance is a big thing with these trucks, but I think guzzle is more on the preventive maintenance than I am.

Check your owners manual it will state the intervals and what should be done. I had mine done at 30K.

You will also need to keep in mind your type of use and driving conditions, like water/mud vs hwy.

I just pull mine out about once a year and set in a coffee can half-full of ATF overnight.

Set them on a shop towel for a couple of hours and re-install.

They still work great.

But, who knows, maybe I'm running on borrowed time.....
