How to Change Ford F-150 Top Hat Style Locking 4×4 Hubs

Just a quick and dirty (in more ways than one) little video on me replacing the manual locking 4×4 hub on a 1987 Ford F-150 pickup. I love this truck. But a little while ago one of the front brakes overheated and melted the locking dial on the driver side hub. These hubs are not available in the Ford parts distribution system, but fortunately I found a pair at Venture Truck Parts in Ogden, Utah. And, voila, I’ve got 4 wheel drive again to haul my bass and other gear around through the snow and mud!
