How can you tell if your hub is IFS or NOT

[Ed Bister]

I'm almost positive my hubs are a IFS hub with a strait axle hub gear......but not 100% sure

How can you tell by looking at the hub body if it is or was a IFS hub body?

someone please kick me down some knowledge:awesomework::beer:

Thanks!

Just look to see if they are attached to a straight axle or bolted to an IFS truck.:redneck:

Hi All:

Post a pic of your lock-outs, then we can make a guess!

I'm serious here!

With IFS hubs don't you need Bobby Longs hub gear to make it work on a straight axle. I am hoping to do this someday as my Warns always loosen up.

IFS hubs have 24 splines, the hub bodys are to tell apart. The IFS hub on the back of it is counter sunk a little more than the streight axle. A streight axle hub gear will NOT work in a IFS the gears will not engage all the way.
Yes we have IFS hub gears.
