ADD to Manual Hubs
I did a search on this subject and found lots of info, but still no answer to the question: Do I have to do the Spindle Nut Conversion when going from ADD to Aisin Manual Hubs, or can I just slap in the new hubs and go?

AHH yes, spindle gear reversal.... How do I do that?
Forgive me, I'm still a fairly new yota owner, and this is the first vehicle I've ever owned w/ IFS.

Yep, the only time you have to do the spindle nut conversion is if you are going from auto hubs to manual. ADD to manual is a snap. Takes longer to R&R the tires than to do the hubs.

Only con is you have to get out of your truck to lock the front wheels in 4wd.

The issue is that my ADD is starting to fail I believe. It only enguages in 4WD 1/2 the time and I believe its related to the ADD system.

91,
I think the Aisin's would remedy your problem. I'm doing it simply because I hate changing CV axles. If the manual hub will save me from doing another CV just once, they've paid for themselves x's 10. Keep and eye on e-bay. Sometimes there's some good deals. But don't pay more than $40 for them on ebay, because the yotayard sells them for that, plus $10-$15 shipping.

Here's a question: if after doing the swap to manual hubs (which I'm starting about10 minutes), if you leave the hubs free and pull your lever into 4-Lo, does that essentially give you 2-Lo?
