    welcome to TW!!

    unfortunately the manual hubs are not a direct swap. It will require a different wheel bearing and CV axle as well at a minimum.

    The wheel bearings can be pressed into your existing spindle, then the manual hubs CVs require no modifications to fit the differential or spindle side when used with the manual hubs.

    That said, the swap might be worth the effort if you put a ton of mileage on your truck. I pick up 2mpg with my hubs unlocked
