Well i just got my 87 back from the shop and i jacked up the front dside to put my 31s on and when i pulled the wheel the lockout came with it i thought i broke it but then started looking it looked like a wheel spacer too in the back. Dropped the wheel and it fell out. Ive never seen a lockout like this is it sopposed to come off and have a spacer in the back like that. Is it safe to put it back on and put my tire on also the wheel spins very hard when i try to spin it whats wrong feels like its draging but you can hardly spin it by hand dont know if its because its been sitting and will eventualy loosen itself up. Help is greatly appreatiated. BTW im soon to put my push bar on.

Well i put them on anyway the wheels seemed a little loose though. Are these aluminum rims deeper dished or something im pretty sure there stock cause i got 2 sets of these and the first set i got the guy said they wre deeper dish and and both sets are the same but they are deeper dished than the steel wheels.also noticed they will fit on the splines only 1 way. What other yr lockouts are the same these ones are shot anyways at least the pside is.

The hub fall off is normal, those were a one year only hub, if you have problems that stuff is really hard to find, best thing is to find a set of spindles and hubs, and the section of axle from the u joint out from an older or newer truck.
Those hub cones should have a smear of rtv silicone, gasket goo whatever on the back before they go on to keep crud out of the bearings.
