Haven't change mine over, but I did have to tear the front hubs and axle apart to replace the inner oil seals. '03, Nothing to it.

Do the wheel bearings and lower ball joints while you're in there. Neither will last 100K.

The stock hubs may be stuck in there. Use a 2x4 or a rubber mallet bo break them loose. I like the MileMarker stainless hubs for a bit more money thatn the Warns. I've used them on my last few trucks.
