What kind of hub do you have manual or automatic? I have to say you have guts taking the hubs apart without a manual. Did you take apart both sides at the same time? If not you can do the other side and be careful as you lay the parts out in order and keep the out side facing up.

I can try to talk you through it assuming I have the picture of the same auto hub you have. Do you have a hub sleeve (that is a tube with grooves along its length and a C ring about 1/3 of the way down)? How many parts are there to the hub?

That is the right picture you looking at. Where did you find it. I've searched for at least 3 hours looking for it. I'm not sure how many parts there are. I'm at work right now.

It is in my Chiltons manual #8166. The title is Dodge/Plymouth trucks 1989-1991 Repair Manual.

I am willing to try. We need to set a time when we can both be on the forum at the same time or via telephone to do this. There are a lot of parts in this procedure that we are going to have to identify both pictorially for me since I don't have the actual part and verbally for you since you don't have a picture or the part names. For lubrication you need Dexron ATF and Mopar 4293040 lubricant or equivalent. ( the book says if you use the wrong lubricant the hub WILL fail )
Look here what I just found.
