I shouldn't even answer this as I'm not real sure. I recall on the explorer front that there was an unseen key - just a little thingy that locked the nut and you had to pull it out with a pick or a magnet or nothing would work. Does that sound like what's going on with this?

Still looking for model year on this truck. Ford is famous about changing things.

Here is step by step from Alldata Pro. As Tom said, there is a locking ring that needs to be removed. Tried to copy pictures but they may not show. It would take too long to install each one.
  1. Separate cap assembly from hub body by removing the six Torx head capscrews.



  1. Remove the snap ring that retains the axle shaft in the hub body assembly.



  1. Remove the lock ring seated in the groove of the wheel hub.



  1. Remove the body assembly from the hub. If the body is difficult to remove, install two capscrews and pull the body assembly out of the hub. For installation, follow removal procedures in reverse order. Tighten six Torx head capscrews to 4-6 N.m (35-50 in.lb) .

Note : Do not pack the cap assembly with grease. Excessive grease can cause excessive dialing effort.

  1. Separate cap assembly from body assembly by removing the five capscrews, using Torx bit TX25 or equivalent. from the cap assembly.
  2. Remove cover.

Caution : Do not drop spring, ball bearing, bearing race, or retainer.

  1. Remove rubber seal.
  2. Remove seal bridge retainer (small metal stamping) from retainer ring space.
  3. Remove retainer ring by closing the ends with needlenose pliers while pulling hub lock from wheel hub. If wheel hub and spindle are to be removed:
  4. Remove C-washer from stub shaft groove.
  5. Remove splined spacer from shaft.
  6. Remove wheel bearing locknuts and lockwasher.
  7. If the hub assembly requires cleaning, refer to Steps 10-16.





  1. Wash the cap bearing, race and retainer assembly in cleaner solvent and thoroughly dry the components. Repack the bearing with a lithium base grease, Premium Long-Life Grease XG-1-C or-k (ESA-M 1075-B) or equivalent. Refer to the illustrations for proper positioning of the bearing on the race.
  2. Remove the snap ring and flatwasher from the inner end of the hub lock assembly.
  3. Pull the hub sleeve and attached parts Out of the drag sleeve.





  1. Cock the drag sleeve to unlock the tangs of the brake band and remove the drag sleeve assembly.

  1. Wash in cleaner solvent and air dry the drag sleeve and brake band. Lubricate the brake band and drag sleeve assembly with 1.5 grams (0.05 oz.) of Automatic Hublock Grease El TZ- 19590-A (ESL-M 1 Cl 93-A) (Darmex Spec. Dx- 1 23-LT) or equivalent. Work the lubricant over the spring and the area of the drag sleeve under the spring.
  2. The body assembly (excludes cap assembly, and brake band and drag sleeve assembly) should be dipped in Motorcraft MERCONO Multi-Purpose Automatic Transmission Fluid XT-2-QDX (ESP-M2C 166-H or ESP-M2C 138-C) or equivalent and permitted to drip dry for a few minutes before proceeding with assembly.



  1. Assemble one of the two tangs of the brake band on each side of the plastic outer cage located in the window of the steel inner cage. Cock parts to engage the tangs into position as the drag sleeve is positioned against the face of the cam follower. Install the washer and snap ring.

Installation

  1. Adjust wheel bearings. Refer to Adjustments in this section for procedure.
  2. Install the splined spacer and the C-washer on the axle shaft.

Note : Remove excessive grease from hub lock and hub splines prior to installation.
