Tech Note 1: Removing Hub
This Ring is the only thing other than corrosion and grime that keeps your factory hub-lock in the wheel hub. If you have removed this ring, and the hub will not come off, try pulling it with a slide hammer and our QT1124 Hub-Lock Puller. Some of those Hub-Locks can get really stuck and since they have a tapered body, trying to get a good enough grip with your hand can be tough.

Tech Note 2: 4x4 Tech Publications
Ford Excursion and Super Duty Front Axles require different disassembly and reassembly procedures compared to other axles. To Help you do the job right the first time, it is strongly recommended you order one of these optional color illustrated print publications with your axle parts:
