Anyone know how to take the hubs apart. My problem is getting the black cover off I tried using a screwdriver I help pry but I really don't want to break it. And how hard is it to put back together? I'm just taking the silver T shaped metal clip out some of you may know what it does like I do.
 
Use a small chisel or flathead screwdriver and tap it w/ a hammer around the lip of the cap. Should pop right off.

thats what it looks like your saying tap the screw driver in all of those small slots
 
You should do the manual hub swap. I did the swap and I love it! You can leave them unlocked and put your t case in 4lo and it will lock the rear so you have 2wd low range. It's great for popping high curbs or pulling a boat up a boat ramp. You can get a set of hubs for $160ish if I remember correctly.

That sounds great but I can do this fix for free lol. plus id hate getting out of the truck every 5 minutes or so in the winter to put in 4wd or in 2wd
 
Ill have that when I take the metal clip out lol the dust cover is just a pain in the ass to get off on mine. Im just going to take a pair of pliers and squeeze it if it breaks o well ill buy a new cover for like 10 bucks
