I have a set of the Warn hubs on my 73 FJ40 that I just purchased. I am trying to figure out what is stock and what is not on my rig. Did the Aisen hubs come from the factory or could my Warn hubs be origional?

Also sorry if I am hi-jacking the thread, but which of the two IYO are the better of the two?

They all left the factory with drive plates, no "unlocking hubs".

I believe that warn was standard until 75ish when the splines went from course to fine.

then aisin's became another dealer option.

Dealer options did not mean factory
 
General wisdom says the factory Aisin is far superior to the Warn. Your 40 would have come from the factory with driveflanges, the Warns were probably a dealer add or PO installed item.

That's what I thought, thank's John. Just trying to get some info on my new rig.

If I have the course splines would I still be able to put on the Aisin lock outs or would I have to do some mod's?

Do a mod...like a front disc brake conversion. ;)

I still want to know if the old coffee can lookin warns are any stronger than the newer ones..
 
Hi All:

Thanks "Pablo!" Where the h*ll did you find that Pampers box?!? :lol:

So, of the Aisen lock-outs, what is the difference between the "tall" and "short" models (besides the obvious!)? Are the "short" Aisen hubs the ones used on the solid front axle Hilux & TLC?

Thanks!

Alan

Those are what my little guy is wearing these days...

I'll add that the old ASCO dials seem to be a little different than the mini-truck dial. I tried rebuilding the ASCO dial with a '82 and later minitruck o-ring and no luck. I tried mixing the mini-truck dial face with the ASCO ring and they do not work :frown:

Anyone know where I can get the o-ring for the old, long-body, ASCO dial?
 
Does anybody have the length, in inches, of the short and long Aisins?
 
Long body ASCO question

I am rebuilding a set of long body ASCO locking hubs. They are for a 1976 FJ55 axle. I am having a brain fart on re-inserting the short spring that holds the collar to the sliding gear.

Does anyone have a ASCO instruction manual? FWIW- the Hayes manual has a picture showing order of installation , but not enough additional information information for me to get everything back together. :mad:

Thanks,

Tim

The long body would have been used from 08/75 to 12/78 on the 40/55 in the USA...



The shorter body was used on 01/79 and later Land Cruisers and solid axle mini trucks...


:beer:

What are the respective lengths of the short and long Aisins?
 
VTCruiser - thank you, I may take you up on that offer, as i'd like to at least but hubs back on the Ball&Claw axle prior to selling it off.

I talked to Mile Marker today, which i found to be very helpful. here's the response from their tech guy for those who may find themselves in this situation in the future, including a diagram of a similar hub. I'm gonna call tomorrow and find out how much the part would be to order.

Selectro Classic Hub:
The hub in you picture is a old 11024-01. The part you need is a cam part number 501.107.52TF if you need to have one just like the one in your picture that is made out of zinc… same number but Z at the end.
· The jpg is not the same as you hub but parts 9,10,11,12,13,,14,7,1 are the same as your hub.
· Yes we do have them in stock. When you call back ask for Susanne or Jackie they will have the cost for you.

Does MM or anyone else offer any service kits for the ejectros?

I've asked MM thru their www the same question. If they respond, I'll post it up.
