Warn hub dilemma???
Taking apart my hub today and can't seem to get the main gear out. Here's whats going on: pulled the snap ring and the lg retainer, pulled out the inner gears and put the Allen head screws back in a little for leverage to pull out the main gear but can only wiggle it in and out slightly. Found some small broken pieces of metal inside. Am I missing a step? Can't see anything that might prevent me from pulling it out. I shot a short video but can't upload it. Any ideas???

Re: Warn hub dilemma???
Never having taken one apart before, I'm going to bet that flat ring with the four notches has to be unscrewed.
MAC, Snap-on and other companies sell a Dana 44 front axle socket that's got four teeth on it. My guess is that socket engages those notches, and you unscrew that ring, which is holding the pieces in. -Brad

Re: Warn hub dilemma???
There is a socket with four teeth on it that loosens the lock nut. Then you can pull it apart. That nut is what tightens the bearings there is also a washer and another nut behind that I believe.

Re: Warn hub dilemma???
there is probably a burr on the inside of the hub that is holding it back, just give it a little tap in with a hammer and see if there is come crap holding it up, here is a picture of a new one so you can see that there is nothing holding it. those lock rings just retain the hub and bearings
you can also google warn hubs and find a lot of info. if people serviced their front hubs more often they wouldn't have any problems  ron |

 The PO gave me slightly used hubs and said 1 needed replacing. Thought it'd be 15 minutes but turned into 5 hours. He neglected the brakes too, rotors need turning, needs pads, bearings and seals so I think I'll do a complete rebuild. Oh Boy
