I only have one kit right now, and they sell very fast. Based on past experiences, this will be sold by monday if not sooner.

Very nice setup, I didn't know it was that simple really. Soooo, with ABS I just have the hub pressed out of yours and with new bearings have it pressed into my knuckle right? What happes with all of the electronic stuff on the transfer case shifter? I'm assuming it's N/A afterwards or do you just unplug the wireloom/button?

I swear, I keep finding more to do or change on this ride!

With abs your gonna have to press out your abs ring out of your spindles and press out the manual hub stuff out of the manual hub spindles, then put it all back together.

Your gonna need new bearings when you press them out, they will most likely be destroyed in the process of taking them out.

You don't have to worry about your tcase shifter, in fact you keep add with just swapping the hubs and spindles. So when you lock the hubs and are in 2wd its just like driving around 2wd now.

yea, what he said.

I have had customer who have done it both ways, with and without ABS.

The only thing that will change is the spindles and axles. Your ADD, and shifter, and tcase parts will not need changing.

I, for one, can't believe you still haven't sold this...

You're losing your touch, DC...

(Maybe too preoccupied with a certain YotaTecher of the female persuasion?)

Well, anyway, here's a free bump.

Darn women, always causing troubles!

As for the hubs, i can't say i am too surprised, given the economy and several other factors.
