96 Ford F250 7.3L: 4X4 Front Locking Hubs

Pride and Joys. It's not everyday you get to work on an old car.. Well an old miticulously maintained car! This 7.3 Ford Diesel is one for the collectors. You don't see them this nice now days. Kudos to the owner for keeping such well care of their ride to allow many more years of reliable service. Some cars are worth fixing. Upon several repairs taking place of this pickup, a final road test proved to have a noise at the left front wheel going down the freeway approximately 70 mph where you could really start to hear it hum. Rather than wait for the problem to worsen the owner nipped it with a quick approval to remove, inspect and install a new bearing as necessary. This video shows the process and disassembly of the left automatic locking 4X4 hub.

Can you show a link for the special hub nut socket you used?
