    Check out the Denver hubs on page 6 of the photo archives on hubs. They also say "Free Lock" on them. Might be what you're talking about.

    has anyone heard Mac's jeep conversions in CA or George's Jeep parts in "Osca" Mississippi? It was suggested to me that these people may have Denver freelock hub parts.

    I took some pictures of my hub which is slightly different from the one pictured on the hub page. Perhaps some of these pictures would be helpful additions.

    I'm not having much luck finding parts for this hub. How about some suggestions on potential jeep junk yards? Would you share some of your favorite sources of used parts?
    Thanks.

    I haven't had much luck locating parts for the freelock hubs with Denver stamped on them. Would anyone have some suggestions of their favorite sources for used jeep parts? Checking jeep junkyards I think will be my only possibility of find the parts i need.
    There was an early thread on these hubs that suggested that they maybe the same as selecto huds made by Husky.
    Any help woud be appreciated.
