Help: mile marker hubs install

[Kain]

I am in the process of installing the new mile marker hubs and am stuck.

The new hub wont go in place
Should i have to force it?
Is there something im missing?

 

[Kain]

Cant tell if the big clip is in place. Could that stop it from going in?

 

[Kain]

Took the old hub and a rubber mallet and smaked it twice and it went into place

Not sure whatcha got going there, pictures?

Big snap ring goes on after for a warn or spicer type
Make sure new hub is not in lock position


If you are using a rubber mallet, keep in mind you should not need to

Do yourself a favor and put a piece of electrical tape on the big ring. Makes it super easy to pull it out next time

i broke two of my picks when it jammedin place so i have to buy a new set i think ill spend more on them so they might last more than half a dozen uses

 

[Bent77]

Yeah those picks are super useful
