Yeah, thanks fellas! I plan to install new hubs. I'll run the wheel lugs through them to test fitting first. I can use a tap and die to clean threads if necessary. With some help available, I may get both sides done. Plus, my helper can clean off rust on the OEM hitch. We'll prime and paint the hitch. The shafts were replaced about 4 years ago. I don't expect having a hard time to get them out.

I built an axle spline push tool from an old front brake rotor but you won't need it if the CV were pulled within even a decade in a non rust zone.

It can still be hard to get splines back in even a new hub so clean the CV splines before install.

When cv splines bind, lift the knuckle so it's more straight and it usually pops right in.
