4x4 Front Hub O-Ring

[Tagg]

Finally found the replacement O-Ring at NAPA that the Ford dealership wanted $ 12.50 for, however it did include a 4x4 sticker (yippee)
The Ford part # F3TZ-1K106-A is replaced by a 3.50" I.D. x 3/32" thickness, Napa part # 727-2153. Hope this info helps somebody if needed.
This is the o-ring between the backside of the hub and the rotor.

4x4 sticker?

You talking about the big oring behind the hub body on the pre-98 hubs?

Yes, they come with a replacement 4x4 sticker for the locking hub knob as well.

not at all. i walked into the office with a set of d-35 axle C-clips and thrust washers and a fistfull of hub o-rings, showed them to george and he rolled his eyes and waved me away

me and george go back...

I got mine at a local 4x4 shop for a few bucks each, since napa said thy could not get them and just use RTV for a replacement

How are those NAPA o-rings holding up? I tried this same thing a few years ago with a Carquest o-ring and within 2 years it was trashed. I'm not sure but I suspect it had to do with the material the o-ring was made from. I finally just got a service kit from WARN #39128 (I have a '86 with D28 axle but I think it also had the parts for a D35). Though I think it ended up being nearly $20 at the local speed shop, but it covered both hubs.

i got a new set of mile marker hubs that had thicker o-rings, they were on for about a month and i took them off to drill them with the new rotors and both o-rings had broke, so ive peeled the old o-rings off the other set of hubs and am going to try that. would high-temp rtv (the red stuff) do any good? im thinking no, what with the temps that brakes get to. heres a pic of the new rotor and hub after drilling/tapping. no more of those circle clips! (3) 1/4-20 ss screws. going to anti-seize them as well.

no more of those circle clips!

I have been trying to find those little clips, but nobody around here can get them... Anyone know of a place I can order them from?

If you have Warn hubs, just talk to Warn customer support. They sent me some for free.
