Got these for my 98 Ford Ranger to fix the non functioning auto locking 4WD hubs, which is a VERY common problem in these vehicles. After a little research on the internet, I learned that the factory uses a pulse vacuum system that usually develops problems from leaking vacuum from somewhere in the system. Trying to find and fix the leak(s) can be frustrating from what I read. I bought these Rugged Ridge manual hubs and the problem is solved! EASY to install...remove the front wheels, pry up the plastic tabs on the factory hubs as you rotate it and pull, it comes right off. Pop the new manual hubs on until they click in place...that\'s it! My 4WD works like a champ now!
Rugged Ridge Manual Locking Hub
Got an older truck that isn\'t worth spending a lot of money/time/effort on debugging flaky 4WD? These hubs directly replace the OEM vacuum operated \"PVM\" hubs, giving you manual control. The factory vacuum system has a lot of failure points - seals, hard and soft vacuum lines, controls, and the hubs themselves. These snap into place of the original hubs, bypassing all of those possible failure points. No, they\'re not as convenient as just turning the dial on the dash (which, BTW, you still have to do...) but they engage as soon as you turn the selector on the hubs, not after moving a few feet, or when they get around to it like the stock system. Note that you can, in fact leave these engaged, at the expense of a little more drag (i.e gas mileage) and wear-and-tear on the front diff (since it turns when the hubs are engaged). Great when you\'re transitioning on and off surfaces that require 4WD, like the day after that big snow when the streets are clear, but you know you\'re going to need it when you get to your driveway!Installation is simple - remove the front wheels, gently pry off the stock hub, check the o-ring (replacement are included), and install the new hub, being sure to seat them completely.
- Important Installation Note: These hubs are intended for use on vehicles over 10 years old. Make sure the surface and splines on your original hub and axles are clean and free of any dirt or debris, and that there are no burrs on the splines which could interfere with installation and proper function of the new hubs. A small amount of SAE 30 oil should be used as lubricant on the hub splines to aid the installation process.
