Manual Locking Hub Question
The hubs on my '80 are "ASCO" brand. This is not a OEM hub correct? I thought "AISIN" was the only OEM hub that came on these trucks. I am basically just looking to see if anyone can verify this to me. If so, I will pull the AISIN hubs off of my '83 parts truck to replace the ASCO ones currently on it. (I am servicing the front axle on the '80 right now and want to go back as original as i can)
Thanks,
Stephen

I literally just got done reading your write-up on the 84-85 forums and read that.......So i guess these are the Original hubs. I guess ill be staying with the ASCO's. Thanks man!

ASCO = Aisin Seiki Corp.
ASCO hubs were used on 80-81 trucks so sticking with them is correct for the truck, and it appears they should be blue dial rather than red. parts are interchangeable with the AISINs if you're rebuilding.
