A question for ALL who have Aisin hubs...
Alright, I just got my hubs put back together. I decided to go ahead with these hubs and see what happens after I install them.
Here's my question. How hard are your hubs to turn?
My hubs turn fine but I think they are a little harder to turn than I would like. I can turn them with my hand. I realize that they won't be easy to turn but I'm just not sure. They turn much easier than they did when I first got them. And yes I have everything put back together correctly. No, I didn't use a lot of grease. I put on enough without it being too much IMO. The hubs work fine too.
Thanks for the input.

Make sure the rubber gasket between the dial and the housing is in right. When I put mine back together I had a tough time moving one of them. Flipped the rubber piece over and it worked much better. Too much grease will bind them too, but you've covered that. What grease are you using?

I obsessed about the stiffness at first too.
It's gonna be a little stiff...think about the clutch and stuff that's meshing. I think as long as there is no grinding or sand or grit inside you'll be ok.
You're gonna notice a huge difference. Check your mpg now, and again after you install.
