Installing Warn Manual locking hubs
I bought a set on ebay. Fedex tracking shows that they should be at
my house within 4 hours time. Should I jack up the Jeep and put the
front end on jackstands on the axle tubes to do this or can I just
drive right into the garage, remove the six bolts from each side and
yank the hubs and put the new Warn units in and bolt them into place
without even jacking up the vehicle? Thank you.

I've replaced hubs in the field without jacking up the vehicle. Do one side at
a time and be sure you have all the tools before you start (like snap ring
pliers).

Re: Installing Warn Manual locking hubs
No jacking is needed. Just remove the 6 bolts that hold the hub caps on, and
tackle whatever you find after that. You can drive into the garage if you
want to, or you can do this job right in the driveway.
I thought you were getting the Superwinch Hubs.

Re: Installing Warn Manual locking hubs
I'd put your jack stands on the frame, not the axle tubes.
