The splined hubs are 4140 billet then machined then heat treated and tempered to. R54/56 then the splines are cut with a wire EDM
to a tolerance of 20 to 30% tighter than stock .
Thanks. I know it’s long and the camera should have been a little closer. Hope it helps some that think it’s a complicated
job. Pretty easy as you know.
Ok guys, need some photos! If you’ve purchased Eco Hubs send me a shot or two of your truck for my web site.
First 10 people get a couple of Eco Hub koozies for your adult beverages! Send me your address also. Thank You!
I’m in the process of building a web site for Eco Hubs. I’m looking for photos of trucks with Eco Hubs installed
and short videos, to use on the new web site. Post them if you have some I can use. Would love to see campers,
work trucks, play trucks, anything is ok. Also if you words...
There are quite a few AO trucks with Eco Hubs. if you look thru the threads, anyone that mentions dip switch setting for the
speedometer should be a AO. Sorry I don’t have a list but I bet someone will respond.
The speedometer recalibrate is done thru the cat engine ecu. I would bet mileage is in there somewhere. To start PM
contact patracy he can start a conversation with whoever you want.
A few photos of Eco Hubs after heat treat and after wire edm process. Also shown is one hub after glass blasting. This is heat treated splined hub with edm slug shown. The cut is done with .008 wire.
I didn’t want to spend the money for the pulley and mounting brackets. And spend the time to install the brackets on the drivers side.
Sounded like quite a project all by itself. The ac hoses route down the right inner frame rail and cross like the heater hoses.
In front of the radiator...
I don’t think an alternator would fit in that location. I had to tip the ac compressor at an angle to make the clearance needed.
and the charge air tube has just enough clearance after some modification.
I’m working on an alternative to the stock Lmtv ac compressor mount and location. Also a different way to mount the ac condenser.. I don’t know how it will work but willing to try something different. A few photos for fun.
