Front axle hub difference

What's the difference between the early 99 and later 99 front hubs. They look the same to me besides some are ABS. I have to replace my hub,U-joint and outer axle, passenger side. Does the axle just pop out of the transfer case? Thanks for any info.

It should slide out of the differential.

The early and late hubs have about 3 or 4mm difference in width. They are not interchangeable. I had to replace mine so I went ahead and bought the late 99 hubs and rotors and converted mine over. It was actually cheaper to buy both hubs and rotors than one early 99 hub.

I've interchanged hubs between e99, late 1999, 00, 01 & 02's, excursions and they've all been the same.
