Tech Note 3: Kit Differences
The only component difference between TK11247, TK11248, and TK11294 Kits is the lock out hubs. TK11247 includes TK56120 Warn Premium Hubs. TK11248 includes TK11258 heavy-duty Dynaloc™ Hubs. TK11294 comes with QU56112 Mile Marker Stainless Steel Hubs.
All three Kits include the following Components:
TK10739 Base Dynatrac Free-Spin™ Kit (not sold separately)
(16) QU50033 9/16" Wheel Stud
Tech Note 4: Ram 3500 Dually
If you have a Dodge Ram 3500 dually, your factory dual wheel hub adapters will have to be changed as they have insufficient clearance for the new lockout hubs included in our Kits. Order optional QU42072 Dual Wheel Adapter Set.
Tech Note 5: Anti-Lock Brakes
TK11247 Kit is only compatible with trucks equipped with Rear Wheel Anti-Lock Brake Systems. There are no provisions for an axle shaft ABS tone ring (used on 1994-1997 models with 4 wheel ABS) or hub mounted tone ring (used on 1998-1999 trucks with 4 wheel ABS).
Tech Note 6: Will NOT fit Dana 44 Axles
TK4947, TK4948, and TK4955 fits 1994-1999 Dodge Ram 2500, Ram 3500 with Rear Wheel ABS, Dana 60 front axles and a Gross Vehicle Weight rating of 8800 pounds or higher. These Kits will NOT fit 1994-1997 Ram 2500 trucks with Dana 44 axles which have a GVW rating under 8800 pounds.
Tech Note 7: Disassembly/Assembly
To install TK11247, you need to remove the original hubs and axle shafts. Depending upon age, mileage, and use, your truck may also need inner axle shaft oil seals, ball joints, brake parts, or pinion seal. Inspect the axle before disassembly for worn or damaged parts and order those extra parts/tools you desire for a first class job. Given the era of trucks this Kit fits, I STRONGLY recommend you replace the inner axle seals which can become hard and brittle with age. For Inner Axle Shaft Seal Kits with oil seals and installation tools see QK4620.
Tech Note 8: CAD System
Installing a Dynatrac Free-Spin™ Kit is a great improvement over the factory live spindle design, but the troublesome vacuum controlled Central Axle Disconnect (CAD) system is still there. You have three choices for the CAD system.
| CAD Option | Advantages | Disadvantages |
| Leave CAD System Intact | No Additional Cost 4x4 Indicator Light Still Functions Normally | Malfunction of any part of CAD System will prevent front axle from engaging |
| Make Spacer to Permanently Lock CAD Axle Fork in 4x4 Mode | Low Cost. More reliable than leaving CAD functional | 4x4 Light will always be ON unless disconnected. Under extreme conditions, CAD Fork or CAD axle shaft splines have been known to fail |
| Install QU11309 CAD Delete Kit | Most Reliable. One axle shaft replaces 2 axle shafts and all CAD related parts | 4x4 Indicator Light will not function Cost is over $300 |
Tech Note 9: Recommended Extras
I strongly recommend you also order QT1016i Spindle Nut Socket and QK4964 Tool and Lube Kit which has the extras you need for a pro-quality installation. All the components are also available separately.
QK4964 includes:
QT1505 Wheel Seal Installer
QT1100 Drive Handle for Seal Installer
(2) QU90018 14 oz. Tubes Pyroplex Plus Synthetic Grease (One is used to fill the Bearing Packer)
S9975 Anti-Seize (Use between the spindle and knuckle and on the brake shield mating surfaces)
QT9404 Brush for applying anti-seize
QT5500 Bearing Packer with Cover
Tech Note 10: Front Axle Disassembly
The first time a 1994-1999 era Ram 2500, Ram 3500 Dana 60 front axle has to come apart, it is usually an absolute WITCH to separate the factory wheel hub assemblies from the steering knuckle as Dana did not use any anti-corrosion compound between the wheel hub flange and steering knuckle. The good news is since you are replacing the original hubs, you do not have to worry about them separating or getting damaged during the removal process.
Tech Note 11: Ball Joints
We also stock TK42057 Dynatrac, Heavy-Duty greaseable and rebuildable Ball Joints for your 1994-1999 Dodge Ram.
