Trying to figure out how to put my auto locking front hubs back on, starting with the inner axle. Anybody got any good tutorials or websites i can use? Very much appreciated (GM 10-bolt)

INSTEAD of roasting me about getting manual locking hubs, can anyone point me to original (still in color) auto locking hub caps? I know the whole assembly is in the picture but i'm only talking the caps (top center) Thanks!

It's been many years since I had auto hubs apart. I remember a lot of pieces, but dang... I don't remember that many, lol. Looking at that picture, I honestly couldn't not say the proper order of assembly. I'm in for instructions...

it wasn't too bad, after the spindle nuts there's a washer and then snap ring, and i believe the nuts had special edges to line up with the hub when you put it in, and then another large snap ring around the hub and a clip or two. . . idk it's been a few months, ain't that bad. my dad ran auto hubs on his '76 back in the day and had alot of nice things to say, figured i'd run them for a bit and see how i like them before switching to the more reliable manual lockers
