Question about locking hubs on disc brake conversion

[ebufkin]

In the middle of a mini truck disc brake conversion. The locking hubs that came with the knuckles I bought did not have the locking ring and mechanism (I don’t know what it is called). I bought a set of the see hubs but I’m not sure if they will work. It seems like there isn’t enough purchase on the axle spines. And the used hubs I bought don’t use the cone washers like the old ones did.

Am I okay to use the “new” used hubs? Would using just lock washers and nuts w/o the cone washers be ok?

I like the cone washers. I like the real Aisin hubs. You'll probably be OK with those hubs, but I would put them on my list of things to replace.

depends on how hard you wheel it. the factory ones are much stronger for wheeling.

To use the warn hub you need a special washer and a bolt at the end of the shaft.
But the aisin hub is stronger and fit better with the latter short birfield, why not using them ?

As said above.
