@@faronf2006 Thanks. I must admit that I haven't released a video in quite a while. Things in my personal and work life, (including a cross country move), have unfortunately cost me time and project vehicles, but I hope to get back in it.
Time, persistence, and a lot of bad words would describe my summer so far with my 1995 ford f 150! Thanks for this. I'm gonna replace my manual hubs on my truck this week
Thanks, I'm really glad to hear that. I know I look up videos almost everytime I work on something I haven't done before. That's why I started my channel. It's my way of giving back. Good luck.
I use a white lithium in a spray can to give everything a light coat. Defiantly not packed full of grease. But we get -30 in the winters, full of grease and they would never turn to engage. Dry graphite in a spray can works as a good lubricant where you wouldn’t normally lube too.
Nice video. I agree with the grease. You don't want to pack it like a bearing, but leaving it without grease doesn't seem right either. I got kind of a chuckle at the point where you're reading the instructions about no grease and when you pull the old ones out there's tons of grease in there. I used high temp bearing grease and coated everything. Now that I have them apart after years of use nothing was stuck, seized, rusted, etc. Not sure why they suddenly decided not to lock in, because they still look and move like when they were new. I put a 1/4" spacer in to give it more spring pressure and it's just marginal maybe that's just what happens over time.
Light coating of grease on the hubs is fine. I typically do that everytime so it's easier to remove in the future for maintenance or brake work. Alternatively you could just use gear oil lube and just coat everything. It's not going to hurt a thing. I've taken apart some very rusty corroded hubs so assembling dry makes zero sense to me.
@@LambchopsChopShop yes it is lol but its fun to do it and if anything else you can always look back on them and be proud of your self for everything you did
If you enjoyed my video, please be sure to hit like, comment, and subscribe. Those three things help my channel tremendously. Thanks and enjoy!
Would you consider selling your old factory hubs ?
@@faronf2006 Unfortunately I no longer have them. Otherwise I would have given them to you. Sorry buddy.
@@LambchopsChopShopdarn ... thanks so much anyways . Just started watching your TH-cam videos ...keep them coming .

Watching you do this honestly gives me the confidence to tinker with my own car.
Thanks!
Thanks. I enjoyed the video.
Headed out to the garage to install mine now.
96 F-150 1-26-2022
Good luck, I hope my video was helpful.
It was helpful. One Warm hub was broken. Replaced with Mile Marker manual hubs. Could not find Warns anywhere until March 2022

Hahaha. I hope my video can help you out.
Just ordered the parts for my truck. Thanks for posting this video. It makes it so much easier when you have a video guide.

Just bought a 89 with one bad hub, this was just what I needed.
I'm glad it was useful. Good luck.
Thanks bud, this was very helpful.
Glad I could help.
I would highly recommend a little anti-sieze on each Allen head screw ...over time they can / will corrode in .
That's a great idea.

That's good to know. I'll remember that.

@@jerrycallo weird how that works sometimes. I blame engineered obsolescence hahaha.
I think the same thing applies to a winch gear with too much grease.
Light coating of grease on the hubs is fine. I typically do that everytime so it's easier to remove in the future for maintenance or brake work. Alternatively you could just use gear oil lube and just coat everything. It's not going to hurt a thing. I've taken apart some very rusty corroded hubs so assembling dry makes zero sense to me.
Good tips. Thanks.
Have you had any problems with the MM lock outs?
None at all. I wasn't super hard on them however.
Was I supposed to put that spring back?
The new hubs come pre-assembled with a spring. No need to reuse the old spring.
So the new hubs didn’t need springs like the factory ones?
What rims are those, they are really nice
They are just the factory ford aluminum wheels.
Mine came with the wrong sized bolts and u couldnt tighten them
@@preacher031163 Aw, that sucks.
You are adorable! Thanks for the video.
Thank you!
My daily is an 04 Chevy 2500HD. Has 630,000 miles on it and counting. (Over a million kms)
