Simple quick hub question.

The 94 truck I have has the ADD and I also have a 90 that has the manual hubs. Is this swap really as easy as most folk make it sound and are the manual hubs (asin) the way to go.

I hear asians are the way to go.

All i did with mine was put the manual hubs on, and i ended up tinkering with the vaccuum lines so the shift fork is always locked.

They seem to be the way to go.....I've got them on mine. They're very easy....the most difficult part seemed to be the cone washers. Just hit them with some pb blaster, leave the nut on the end of the stud, and tap lightly on the edge of the hub with a hammer.....washers will pop right out.

Is it difficult to remove the center cap/switch on the AISIN hubs to strip/paint it another colour? If so, what sort of a paint should one use?

You should see some of the effed up hubs I have seen because of this!

The correct way is to use a brass punch and hammer

The ADD plate has 2 threaded holes in it. Just screw in some bolts and it will loosen the cones. The hubs are a different story, PITA.
