Alright so I gotta 94 p/u aisin hubs. They never been romoved my dad bought it brand new so i know they havenn't been touched. The passenger side will lock and unlock by hand but not easily but will not engage. Wanna take them apart tomorrow (in the snow if I have to) lol. I read around the forums about how to do it but what should I look for as far as damage goes?

 

Follow my write up. Probably full of gunk and just need cleaning and regreasing.

X2 when mine did it just needed cleaning and lite greese

 

check for a broken spring
(inside the hub)

.

 

That's good to hear. Hopefully it just needs a cleaning. No money for new ones right now. Lockers just took my wallet for this check. Thanks guys

 

Ok took hubs apart and stripped down. Nothing broken just rusty and gunky. What's the best way to clean?

 

uhm, just get all the grease off, i threw mine into a parts washer for a bit, then i media blasted the outside of the body and the hub dial and face.

 

The outside of the hub body is good. The clutch and pawl hand I think its called has some surface rust tho wire brush not doing much. Maybe after a parts washer dip it will

 

a toothbrush and some degreaser sprayed in to a cup. or use a parts washer if you have one of those.

 

Your prolly gonna need new orings and gaskets when you put them back together. I got mine at a local Toyota dealer for like $20.

Dial cover 43531-60010
Hub body 43422-60010
Oring under dial 43532-60010

 

well parts washer is out my buddy had one but said its gone now so i guess try your method fierohink. see it that works. and yea ill prob get those from wab if i replace. which i prob will

 

Look for the detent ball and spring on the dial face. Mine had rusted up.

 

Soak them in mineral spirits or some degreaser overnight and then clean with a tootbrush. Wipe clean. Clean up rusty spots with a Dremel tool with a wire brush.

Light grease to reassemble. I got a thread how to do that on here.

I would grease the spindle bushing while I had it tore down. There is plenty of info on that here as well. X2 on supporting a vendor, check out Wabs site, link in his sig.

 

yea my ball and spring are a little rusted gonna try to clean it up if not wab will get a order. good idea on the dremel. i have read your your thread on the reinstalling wab. thanks guys. my hubs have been off for two days now should i be worried about moisture getting to the parts exposed on the truck
