New hubs and iwe's going on.

Just an FYI, the new ABS wire on the Timken hubs won't clear our dust shields. You have to trim out a little notch. No biggie.

Waiting on new hardware from RPG now. Discovered UCA bolt to frame nut had backed out, about to fall off.

Asked Corey to send me new stuff including UCA pins and nuts.

FWIW, My Truck has 2 dorman IWE's on it. Those IWE's have 2 Snoball preruns and 2 Snoballs, plus numerous other events in 4wd.

I would recommend the Dorman part to anyone.

No front Torsen differential.
How has Big Tinney held up?

Here is the link to my IWE removal video.

I'm also using and have been using for a while the Dorman IWE's.
They've gone through many events and held up great.

No front Torsen differential.

You both have older trucks.

do not use dorman! only use FMC OEM

After a little research I found out they're the exact same part (Ford branded IWE and Dorman IWE) both made by Dorman in the same building.

Think thats why it was still on. My bad for not checking it since it was installed 3 years ago.
