Here ya go;

Warn® Standard & Premium Hub Instructions P/N 20990 P/N 9790 & Diagrams for DRIVE ******, MANUAL HUBLOCK, AUTO; "...These instructions are what comes with the Warn Premium hubs. If the original autolock covers have 3 screws, you will also need the spindle nut conversion kit. If you have five screws, this box contains everything you need. "... Install the Axle retaining ring. If necessary, a pry bar can be inserted into the knuckle (universal joint) to hold the axle shaft outboard while installing the axle retaining ring..."

3 ***** to Warn® w/ Bearing Locknut Torque Settings in a 95 (

but his TORQUES are off a bit). miesk5 NOTE: "Word for word from Haynes Manual Ford Pickups and Bronco 1980 - 1996 Using a lockout spanner (ford # T59T-1197-B or equivalent ) and a torque wrench, tighten the inner bearing adjusting nut to 50 foot pounds while rotating the wheel back and forth and seating the bearing. Back off the adjusting nut approximately 45 degrees.

Assemble the lock washer by turning the inner lockout to align the pin with the nearest hole in the lock washer. To lock it, install the outer lock nut and tighten it to 150 foot pounds.

Grab the top of the tire with one hand and the bottom of the tire with the other. Move the tire in and out on the spindle. End play should be less than .006 – inch.)" thanks to Chris!!!!
