ok maybe i should have checked this before the snow started. i can't get the hubs to turn. i have a 99 f-250. 7.3l. any tricks on this. and also how hard is it to replace these with the warn manual turning hubs. teh dealership wants 110 just to look at it and tell me whats wrong. any opinions. i do know how to work on cars but need more opinions on this. thanks

well i finally got the hubs to turn. all it took was a little wd40 and turning with a pair of vice grips. buut know i want to replace them with teh warn. there still tight to turn. so i think i'll replace them anyway. thanks for the link seems pretty easy

a set of WARN hubs from a dana 60 will fit right in there and work like a champ. we did it to my dads 2000 because they would not unlock and they wore a stub axle out where the torington bearing rides on it causing it to vibrate pretty bad..
