Rebuilding Hilux Manual Locking Hubs

Post by unbreakable »

I pulled my front manual locking hubs apart the other day on my 95 hilux because my front drive shaft was not disengaging when i turned the hubs to FREE.

I found that there were springs missing inside and everyhthing was a mess. I have only had the truck for about 2 months.

Has anyone rebuilt there front hubs or replaced or upgraded? Any help would be great.

I haven't found a stronger hub. And they are very easy to rebuild. The only upgrade from a factory hub that I would recommend would be drive flanges.
