Anyone think it would be a good idea to start a swap type deal with a left and right hub set.
I am not in the need just yet but i have been thinkjng about finding a left and right so that i can rebuild one at a time and just swap them in then rebuilt the next one and so on. Once my 4 were done th enext guy would do the same.
Might be a little easier to just do it on my own and sell the last 2 when done but you never know. That being said anyone have any laying around? Cheap. LOL!

Re: Spare left and right hubs
I am still new to this, but I believe the left and right hubs are the exact same except for the tie rod connector. But if you flip it over it will fit the other side. In the service manual it said the right front and left rear are the same and vice versa. And if you were sent the "wrong" part just reverse the housing that connects to the tie rod.
So in theory you only need one hub if you are doing them one at a time. I seam to remember seeing some on the Humvee swap forum on Facebook but they are all in the states
