Tech Note 3: U-Joints Pre-Installed
The Axle U-Joints included in TK4945, TK4953, TK4960 Kits will be pre-installed in your new outer axle shafts.

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 QU42073 Dual Wheel Adapter Set.

Tech Note 5: Allow Clearance
To allow clearance for your new wheel hubs, your front wheels must have center holes that are at least 4-1/4" in diameter.

Tech Note 6: Included Components
TK4945, TK4953, TK4960 Kits include the axle universal joints and parts needed to upgrade your Dodge to serviceable wheel bearings and lockout hubs. To install this Kit, 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.

Tech Note 7: Ball Joints
We also stock TK42058 Dynatrac, Heavy-Duty greaseable/rebuildable Ball Joints and TK11266 Carli Extreme Duty greaseable Ball Joints for 2012 and 2013 Dodge Ram 2500, Ram 3500 with the 4 trailing arm type front suspension. Later 2013, and 2014-up with radius arm front axle suspension use different ball joints.

Tech Note 8: Kits Include
Torque King Premium TK4945 Kits INCLUDE 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 Note9: Seal Kits
For high mileage trucks, I recommended you replace the inner axle seals at the same time you install your new Free-Spin™ Kit. For Inner Axle Shaft Seal Kits with oil seals and installation tools see QK4685.

Tech Note 10: Before Removing
Unless it is less than 1 year old, the first time a 2012-2018 Ram 2500, Ram 3500 AAM 9-1/4" front axle has to comes apart, it is usually an absolute WITCH to separate the factory wheel hub assemblies from the steering knuckle as AAM 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: Component Differences
The only component difference between TK4945, TK4953, and TK4960 Kits is the lock out hubs. TK4945 includes TK56120 Warn Premium Hubs. TK4953 includes TK11258 heavy-duty Dynaloc™ Hubs. TK4960 comes with QU56112 Mile Marker Stainless Steel Hubs.
In addition to the Dynatrac Parts, and Hub Locks of your choice, all three Kits include the following components:
TK50253 Pair of Axle U-Joints
QT1016i Spindle Nut Socket for adjusting the wheel bearings
