Ditch the Unit Bearings with Yukon Gear Spin Free Locking Hub Conversion Kits for Dodge/RAM and Jeep

Many Dodge and Ram four-wheel drive pickups came from the factory with unit bearing hubs on the front axle. Not only are those unit bearings non-serviceable and expensive, the factory recommends replacing them every 60,000 to 80,000 miles. Same goes for early Jeep Cherokees and Wranglers with Dana 30 front axles.

But you can dispense with those pesky unit bearings by replacing them with a Yukon Gear Spin Free Locking Hub Conversion Kit. The kit comes with tapered wheel bearings and races that are much easier and less expensive to service. You also get a pair of Yukon’s Hardcore locking hubs that allow you to manually disengage the front axle when in two-wheel drive. The reduced drag can help boost your fuel mileage and also extend the life of the front driveline components.

The Yukon Gear Spin Free Locking Hub Conversion Kit comes with quality Timken bearings, wheel hubs, 4340 chromoly stub axles, spindles, the Hardcore locking hubs, and all necessary seals and hardware.

These YouTube videos posted by Shadon HKW give you an in-depth look at how the Spin Free conversion is installed on a Dodge one-ton diesel pickup. We highly recommend watching them before tackling the job:
