ADD to manual question

On my 93 T-100 with stock aluminum wheels, I'm changing the ADD hubs over to manual Warn hubs. I got the Warn kit but did not install yet. It looks like the stock plastic hubcap will not fit because of the new Warn hubs. Do I need to cut holes in the hubcaps or do I need to get different hubcaps? Bob

I don't think you use the hub cap after you change over.

Not sure

I'm not sure how the Warn hubs look, althoughI've heard they are pretty big. I'd agree with Steve that you probably can't use the covers up front. If you were to get the Aisin hubs from an old pickup, you definitely don't use the covers, but the assembly is nicely finished so it doesn't look like something is missing.

Good luck - this conversion is on my list for winter mods.

Oh, and don't throw away the hub caps. People are always loosing those things and want to buy them. Sell them on ebay or here.

Just did this in the last few months to my truck, and you definitely don't need them.

O.K. got them installed last night. Very easy job and everything went just like the write-up in the Tech forum. Took about 1 hour for both sides in may garage with just hand tools. No more noise and the steering is a little lighter. I guess I'll save a little on gas too with less moving parts. Thanks to all that helped! Bob

Do you have the factory alloys? I'd love to buy your center caps from you. PM me if you'd like to part with them.

Cebby,
Will do if I decide to get rid of them. I'll probably keep them though in case I lose one . Bob
