Default Need a quick answer on hubs

Hey folks. My bearings ate the hubs and I've been looking for the replacement hubs for about three months now. JC whitney, rockauto and bronco graveyard have raybestos which has them on backorder. My question is a local junkyard has two hubs but they are auto. Can I use them with the manual warn lockouts I just bought? The truck originally was manual and its a 95. Please help. I need this thing back on the road. Thanks.

OK. Cool. I will have to keep that in mind. Out of the eight other junkyards I called. I finally found one with manual hubs for 50 a piece and they pull them for me. Score! I might just have the old girl back on the road this weekend. I'm stoked. Anyone have any tips to keep an eye out for? Thanks.

Is there anywhere in this country that has any manual locking hubs for sale that isnt made by raybestos who is backed up till who knows when? I cant find them anywhere and im getting really frustrated. Junkyards are pretty much worthless around here. About the only one that has them is full of a bunch of ****** and cost as much as the new ones.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Not ebay already looked, or rockauto, bronco graveyard, lmc.
Thanks

Warn makes a set and I believe when you have the factory auto's you have to get the spindle nut conversion kit.
