Dana 44 hub question...

[dirtygoat]

I've got a chevy 8 lug dana 44 that has auto hubs...

I have a pair of mile marker locking hubs that were given to me... Thanks Dustin...

I just pulled the auto hub off the drivers side and there is no small snap ring and the big ring is different than normal...

I called cascade offroad and asked if they carry the snap rings and he told me I need a conversion kit...

I asked what was in the kit and he said that it has the snap rings and different spindle nuts... The kit is for both sides and costs $65...

Looking at the spindle nuts that are on the axle right now, it looks not different than any other that I've seen...

Why would I need to change spindle nuts??? And where can I get just the snap rings???

I was able to get a set of snap rings from my local spicer parts distributor last time I need one. I can't remember the places name off the top of my head though.

Local transmission shops carry a variety of snap rings, might be a place to start.

I talked to the guys at Bob's tonight before the WOW meeting and they don't understand why I would need that kit either...

So, all I need are the big and little snap rings...

Went to pull-a-part and everything was already raped...

Might have a line on some...
