So, if i buy new hubs, will all the snap rings come with it included like if I bought Warn hubs or something. The hub I took off is shot anyway. It is the stock one.

Yep! Do you need help with the assembly starting with the bearings. I was focusing in the hub portion...that seems to be the most confusing for people.

The Unit Repair Manual will cover the axles.
I posted all 4 volumes of the 1987 General Motors Light Truck Service manual set in my PDF thread. Service, Unit Repair, Emissions, and Wiring.

This is the V10 V20 front axle blowup from the 1985-1991 GM 52R Light Truck Parts Illustration Book. --->http://gmpartswiki.com/getpage?pageid=54880
The next 2 pages will be the Diagram #, GM part numbers, and Descriptions. After that will be the V30 front axle.

Re: Spindle/ 4x4 hub help
Just so you know, the locking ring in the photo posted by Ski-me is from a truck with automatic hubs. The 4 square tabs on the outer edge are not there on most of them. It doesn't hurt anything if they are there, but they are not needed......because you really don't automatic hubs anyway.
