I have a 94 f150 with manual lock hubs. stock ford ones I believe. I have taken the cap off, taken out every lock ring and clip I can find. But the hub won't slide out. Every video I have watched it just slides right out, but not mine. Any tips or secrets? thanks!

its probably just caked up with burnt out grease. I would tap it with a hard plastic mallet around the edges a few times, it should start to give way.

Tried tapping at it, no luck. Sprayed it liberally with some pb blaster. We shall see in the morning if that worked. But im not getting my hopes up.

It seems like you're saying you don't know which clips & rings you SHOULD be taking out. So you should put them all back in just the way they were before you forget or lose them.

Then click these & read the captions:

Why are you trying to take them out? For more info, read ALL the captions in that photo album by clicking PREV/NEXT at the top Left.

I have watched a few videos, and done some research on the forums. I have an idea what I am doing, and what clips I am looking for. And I know where they go back to.I was just kinda exegerating when I said every clip I can find. I am replacing my ball joints and ujoints.

Then after you've read the ones above & gotten the lock out, this album's captions might interest you:

Thank you for the resources. I'll look thru that one when i start my other repairs. If you only you had a nice picture book on how to remove stuck hubs lol

Are your hubs still stuck?

Eli Youmans

Nope. Made myself a puller using the bolt holes in the hub, and a 1/2'' bolt to push on the axle
