No, those certainly are not your hubs. Those look like the auto/locking hubs from a Ford F350.

You don't have to unhook any vacuum lines..
AS for the gaskets, I went to Toyota and asked for manual hub gaskets..

IF your sig is correct you have a 3rd gen, The auto hubs were not available on any trucks after 88 and any runners after 89.

As far as I know swaping from "Automatic" hubs to manual hubs is quite difficult and requires a kit.

I didnt think it was all that difficult... pull the auto hub cap off, undo the center bolt, pull off the hub body, remove the inner brake assembly (snap ring), remove the inner brake drum (torx screws), remove adjusting nut.

Installation was install washer, nut, star washer, nut, hub, bolt, cap, ta-da....

(for 86-89 anyway)

EDIT: and sorry to get off original topic. If needed, PM me with questions to keep on topic.

You are correct, but your wording is not.

You didn't remove the ADD (Automatic Disconnecting Differential) you removed the hub lock plate, and installed manual hubs.

Sorry, I meant to say that if you want to bypass the ADD, then follow the instructions on that link I posted.

No, you're good. What he meant is you didnt remove/unbolt/replace the "ADD," you removed/unbolted/replaced the drive flanges. Its the drive flanges you are swaping to manual hubs. ADD is the name of the axle system.

1994 4Runners had ADD, which is NOT auto hubs. The only thing you need is the Hubs, and the hub gasket. THATS IT. Your truck already has all the hardware you need.
