Bronco manual hub removal

Rox Crusher Contributor. Joined Dec 13, Messages 2, Joined Feb 18, Messages Loc. Remove the outer snap ring[S QQ ] from the end of the axle shaft[R. If not, use a pick with a curved end or maybe a couple screwdrivers to lever them out.

The spring[1A] should be easy to remove, and you'll need a pick or screwdriver again to get the spring plate[1A] out. And that's pretty much all there is to the hub lock assembly!
