Hey guys, I am looking for an automatic locking Hub conversion kit for my 1996 7.3L Turbo F250. I cant seem to locate such a kit and I don't even know if it is possible to retrofit those hub assemblies. Input would be much appreciated! Thanks guys.

i can't help much. my auto hubs kept going out on my '97 f350. i got tired of replacing so i installed manual hubs. works much better for me.

autos are junk! only place to find them is at the ford stealership and be prepared to bend over! I had one go out on my 96 and the price for one was so high I was able to convert over to manual warns all the way around for less money than buying one side.

What manual hub is best?
Warn hubs - Standard or Premium?
Any one know what the difference is?

Only difference I know of it that the standard kit has plastic handles, and the premium has metal.

Warn is good. I got premiums on sale for around 180 bux + shipping... make sure you buy the dana 60 hubbs not the 44s (Heavy duty TTB Dana 50 uses the Dana 60 hubbs)
