more than likely... it really depends on how wide the axles are... some people choose axles that are for a full-width truck and it makes the tires stick way out from the fenders
well your asking some very good ????????? first off yes if you move the wheel base you will have to trim the fenders however it all depends on the tires you put on after its all together. second after you get the axle in you will then need to decide what one looks to be easyer to put in (dont forget to think of the strength of the two drive shafts what one is stronger). as for the rest you seem to have it coverd. remember when you repack them bearings to clean them out really good and the race the part that the bearings sit in
When you buy new manual locking hubs, do they come with any parts in them? or are they expecting you to use your old ones? What comes in the auto to manual kit?
No, it comes with a complete hub. It has all the guts in it and lubed up. The only thing you have to but seperate is the spindle nuts. The stock nuts are too big arounf to fit in the hub. The conversion nuts require a special axle nut socket that has 4 teeth on it.
here are some pics of how the hub comes. Those are conversion nuts next to it.
Somewhere i read, that somebody had a ranger with auto locking hubs and one with manual locking hubs. He asked if he could take the manual hubs and put them on his auto locking truck without a kit. And somebody said yes. How is that possible.

You would have swap the spindle nuts. I am pretty sure an auto hub will work with either nuts, but the manual hub will only work with the conversion nuts.
I broke one on my D28, so maybe im just paranoid. Now i have a D35. I would love to buy some for the D35. Do D28 hubs work on the D35? cause if they do i have an extra auto hub.
I’m in new of a rear end 8.8 ring gear, 3.27 gear ratio with 10” brakes, is there any other vehicles that have this configuration that can be swapped with?
My four wheel drive doesnt work in my 02 ranger im told its a common problem also i have a b4000 thats doing the same thing .Can i put locking hubs in them for them to work
Hey guys. I'm new here. I have a 1990 ranger xlt 4x4. It has an m5r1 and a 2.9 v6.
It's long bed regular cab, if that would matter. I am milking the 2.9 along, but it has a bad case of sitting sickness, (abut 3 years) from before I got it. From what I have seen 2.9 long blocks are pretty high...
I have a 2003 ranger xlt ext cab with 3.0 V6. I bought a 1997 explorer rear end and need to know about the ABS system? Will I need to change the control valve or will the one on the ranger work?
