LOS-YJ 11-01-2001, 03:11 PM I picked a matching pair of axles for my YJ project a 60R and a 44F with 8 lug pattern out of an old J series the 44F does not have locking hubs its a full floater. Do I need to throw manual hubs in it?? Or what can i do in order to run that axle?? 66CJdean 11-01-2001, 04:22 PM All 4x4 fronts are FF. To answer the question you can just tape it off and drive it as long as the 2 nuts and lock washer are still in it. LOS-YJ 11-01-2001, 05:19 PM That was alot of help..... thanks Cheepin 11-01-2001, 08:32 PM What does it have now?Is it external or internal hub?If internal does it have a silver cap on it?If it has the cap it is fulltime and can be converted to partime by pulling the cap then a snap ring and the drive gears and big spring.Then you can put a set of manual hubs in.I keep a pair of these drive gears and cap for spares.If you want I have pulled the gears and put the cap back on and ran like that.But it takes more time to get 4wheel drive.If it is external I would get a set of hubs.Taping it off would just be temporary.Blazin <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/usa.gif" border="0"> LOS-YJ 11-02-2001, 05:48 AM The hubs on it now are external with a cap on them.. so i can just convert them to manuals??? Tommy 11-03-2001, 10:12 PM Yep!! Just pull out the innerds like described above and put on hubs. Easy. Keep the innerds for spares in case you break a hub on the trail. | |
