I have an 87 dodge W-150 with the dana 44-8FD front axle (the one with the vacuum actuated front axle connect), that engages the 4 wheel drive. I want to convert it to
manual locking hubs, no one makes a kit for this on older trucks...so does anyone know which older dodge W series / ramchargers would have interchangeable knuckle's / hubs that would work??? i would like the extra 2-3 mpg this would get me.

I have an 86 with the same axle and all you have to do is put warn hubs #20990 and replace vac motor with posi lock cable system. Put a lunchbox locker in it and your ready. to make sharp turns just disengage cable and only one front tire will pull alowing sharp turns. Hope that helps out sorry for delay.now go enjoy that locked front end.
