HZJ73 Warn Locking Hub (1 Viewer)

[Rvl]

Do the hubs for the 1975-87 LC fit the HZJ73 ?
Both are 30 spline.
Is it difficult to replace the electric hubs ?

Thanks

There are two lengths of Warn hubs. The longer one for 76-78 and the shorter one for 79 and after. I would suspect the ones you can get in Japan are the shorter ones, but be sure to check. Yes, the birfields spline count and the shaft size are the same and the shorter Warn hub would fit (the longer would also work with the fender washer and M8 bolt trick)

The question is whether the manual locking hub would work with the electric locking wheelhub. I've never done so, but the gasket and the stud spacing are the same from what I can see. There are only 4 studs instead of the usual 6 studs but they should fit into the manual hub.

Robert, you are living in the land of Aisin, why not get Aisin hubs?

To those who are wondering, the electric locking hub Rvl is referring to is not the electric locking differential. It's one of these:
