'62 GMC K1000 Locking Hubs
For the last couple years I have been searching for a set of locking hubs. My truck has a Dana 44 closed knuckle, long hub front axle. When I bought the truck it had locking gears in the front axle. I have reached out to a lot of knowledgeable organizations and asked if they had a set of hubs and if not, could they tell me the make and model of a set that would fit. It appears that it is very difficult to identify the right hubs. I even paid top dollar for a set of Selectro 11001 hubs when I was assured they were correct. They disintegrated on first use. Here is my question. Is it possible that there aren't any hubs that fit my axle? Should I stick with locking gears? I have been told that the long length of my hubs is what is making things difficult. Does this makes sense to you guys? Is anyone out there running a set of hubs in my type of front axle? I appreciate the help.
