This set of used Kelly Hubs appears in good shape. They were manufactured at the Kelly plant in Charleston, West Virginia, probably around the late 1950s or early 1960s. A descendent of the Kelly founder who worked at the plant indicated they were also made there. I believe they were invented by D.L. Beck, who filed a patent very similar to these in 1957. Beck happens to be the same man who founded the D.L. Beck Manufacturing Company in Middleport, Ohio, which made Beck hard tops in the late 40s/early 50s, a company later bought by Hubert Kelly and rebranded Kelly Mfg. They are a 10-spline hub.

“Good Used Set of Kelly Mfg Self-Lock Hubs. Removed from 1948 Dana 25 front axle. Will fit Jeep Willys Spicer Dana Model 25 27 Front Axle with 10 spline ends. Cleaned to check for cracks and breaks. Both hubs work well. May want to disassemble and regrease”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

These appear to be 19 spline Husky Hubs (I counted the splines). Anyone see a reason why these wouldn’t work on a 19 spline jeep axle/hub?

Here’s a rare set of Kelly hubs.

“Kelly Mfg. Automatic locking hubs. These are off of a 1953 Willys CJ3a, but, should fit most Jeeps with a Dana 25 or 27 front axle. They are ten spline. These hubs were usually dealer installed options, and are in very good shape, and in working order. Great for a restoration project. $80.00, or would consider trading for a good 5.38 ring and pinion for the same Dana 25/27 front axle.”

Are these CJ-sized Dualmatic hubs?

“Dana 44 3/4 ton hubs fits chev ford jeep older bolt on hubs
Cj5 6 bolt warn hubs mid 70s near new
3/4 ton hubs $125.00
Cj5 hubs $75.00”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $150.

Glenn found these for sale.

“Selling one pair or Warn Summer Hubs for Willys Jeep. In case you do not know, these are a period accessory for the four wheel drive to disconnect the axle shafts at the hubs. They bolt on in place of the drive flanges. Selectable hubs have since replaced them.

They are virtually bang and nick free and do not have too much marring in the area where the bolt lock washers go. It looks as if they were bolted on once or so. They could be polished up to look new again in no time. They have the bearings in the back side but no original box. They are on a board of some sort with wood dowels to keep them placed. I am not sure if that is original to them.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300

The hubs include a storage box.

“These vintage 1950s WARN hubs are used to convert jeeps and other Willys vehicles from full-time four wheel drive to two wheel drive by replacing the grooved 4WD hub with a non-grooved hub. An integral needle bearing and a separate bushing support the splined axle end in the non-grooved hub.

They are called “summer” hubs because owners would remove the early full-time 4WD hubs from their vehicles during the summer when 4WD was not required, to increase gas mileage, and to reduce wear on tires and drive train parts. They are also attractive with the “waffle” pattern and script “Warn” on each shiny aluminum hub.

UPDATE: **SOLD** were on eBay.

“RARE vintage CUTLAS self-lock hubs. 10 Spline. Should fit various flatfender Willys Jeeps: CJ-2A, CJ-3A, CJ-3B, MB, M-38. Also should fit early Scout and Ford GPW. Good used condition. Decent chrome, with a few minor nicks/dings (see photo #7). Includes a custom-fabricated aluminum bushing to replace a cracked nylon bushing in one hub (see photo #8). Please do your own research before bidding to make sure these will fit your application. Ready to install.”

Need cleaning, but may be a good price.

“I have a set of Dualmatic locking hubs off early Willys Jeep. They fit 10 spline axle shafts. $50 each.”

http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/4570844835.html

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $20.

“I just pulled these off of my Willys ’51 CJ3A Jeep. 

They worked before I removed them. 

Sold by Sears MANY years ago under the name Allstate. 
They are built like a vault. They don’t make them like these anymore. 

These could be a neat addition to a period-correct Jeep restoration! 
Not pretty right now but media blast and detail them and they’ll probably clean up REALLY nice. 

$20 cash 

It’s up to you to insure these fit your Jeep. 
NO returns or refunds. 

Best I can tell (no guarantees!), these can fit: 
10 spline early front axle Jeeps including: 
1971-older CJ 
66-71 Jeepster and Commando 
1973-prior Gladiator, Wagoneer and pickup 
1965-prior Pickup and Wagon”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700.

UPDATE: These were listed on eBay in 2012.

Hublock hubs appear to have been made by Dana-Spicer.

“This is an original pair of vintage lock out hubs. These are made by HUB LOK. I am not sure if these were Sears, Spicer, Dana, ACME or whatever. They work just fine. They fit the Dana 25 front axles. These fit the MB, GPW, CJ2A, CJ3A, M38, M38A1, CJ3B, and early Cj5. They need a good cleaning.”
