I just picked up a 91 Explorer (for parts) that the previous owner had converted from automatic hubs to Warn Manual Hubs. I want to take the manual hubs off and put them on my 94 Explorer that has automatic hubs that don't work. My problem is I can't figure out how to get the outsite spindle nut off. I've already got the snap ring and the axle shaft spacer off, now the next thing to come off is the outer spindle nut. I'm using a 1/2 ratchet and a piece of pipe on the end of the ratchet for extra leverage and the darn nut will not budge!!!! I don't see any pins or anything between the nut and the spindle preventing it from spinning. Is there a trick to getting this thing off? Have I missed something? I'm afraid if I pry on it any harder I'm gonna break something. Should I just pry as hard as I can until it comes off? Is it just stuck or something? I know some of you have done this conversion before so can one of you guys help me out? Thanks...
