Hi, been a while since I've been on here.
I have an LJ71, it has electric hubs, they kept failing so I did the modifaction so they stay locked some time ago, I found that Rough trax do manual replacements but are unsure wether they will fit, I know there are people on here that are more technical than me and are very helpful, could some one give me some advice please.
Here is a link, there are two options.

Hi. I could not open the link but I have done the swap on my LJ78. I used a good set of second hand complete hubs from a Toyota Hilux. Did bearing s amd seals at the same time plus put in new brake discs. Very happy with them and went in without much hassle. Yes it needs to be engaged and disengaged manally now but at least it works all the time I need it to and can still leave the wheels free wheeling on road to avoid diff wear and marginal (probably not noticable) saving in fuel consumption.
