John, you need a shop on this side of the ferry! Maybe I'll just make a long list and then plan a fishing trip while you guys do your thing!

Well if you tear down the front end, let us help
I suppose we also ought to build a e-hub specific wheel bearing kit and those same 3 torx screws have to come out for that too.
Whelp...

Do you have the lockout contacts? Still searching for a replacement but have an alternative on the way.

Sorry I do not have them new, we do have a growing assortment of used e-hubs that I would sell complete. I'd have to peak at the condition of the actual contacts.
Kurt, not sure if you remember, but I had planned on doing the front rebuild about two years ago but had the manual locking hub gasket instead of the e-hub gasket. In any-case I never did finish the rebuild because I stripped a torx bit out and didn't want to drill and tap it. I will order the bolts from you when the time comes. That said, I'd even recommend including a drill bit and tap with the kit, not sure the expense, but I'm willing to bet others may be in a similar situation.

Great feedback..l those bolts are buggers. We've had a few through the shop and knock-on-wood they all came out.
My answer is to use a flat ended pin punch ( 8mm )and hit the head of the torx screw a couple of times, works 99% of the time.

I see you deal with this a fair bit based on your sig line. Do you make the adapter/spacers?
As my electric to manual conversion is to the original electric hubs you don't need spacers.

Bump... still moving a the E-Hub kits from time to time. Just shipped out a complete setup. Copy/Paste from our FB/IG post, figured it all started here I may as well share it here too.
