Title: 78 Dana 44 going to manual warn hubs?
Post by: chadt256 on May 06, 2010, 01:42:49 am

I just bought a set of used warn hubs that were used on a 84 chevy with the same axle as mine but was wondering if I am going to have to do anything to put the manual ones on my axle.. Mine have the factory automatic which are shot.. & I don't like the front tires pullin all the time since it's full time t-case.

they will just replace the auto hubs but you wont really see a difference in mpg or power due to fact you front Axel will still be turning minus the tires unless you install a part time kit

As long as you got the whole thing they just swap out

What would I have to do to put on a part time kit.  I have the full time 4x4 also.
