I just bought a new bendix canada made hub for the "large" inner bearing style '77+'s. Got it, looks good, but my MM lockout body needs to be hammered in and doesn't like coming out either. I have 1 good OEM take off that my lockout body slides right in and out easily. so why on a new hub would I be having such problems? I'm thinking it's just not made really well, or specs are off. Any ideas? Either way, I'm looking for a good OEM take off '77+ Hub thats not dented up.

Get a set of Warns and do away with the MM's.. I have never had any luck with those even when they fit right they didn't last to long..

tighter is better
Warn's suck
OEM is Bendix
