Subject: Dualmatic Hub Parts in Production
Date Posted: 06 Jan. 2017 at 7:41pm
I have a couple of much needed Dualmatic hub parts in production as I write this quick note.

I have the unique opportunity to re-create a couple of long sought after pieces to breath new life into these hubs, but before I spill the beans, I wanted to get some feedback from the members of this great brotherhood to sample the water.

Which parts would you like to see brought back to life? Your answers will be very important to me moving forward with demand, pricing, etc..

Thanks ahead of time, Tim

The washers for the bolts would be cool. Weren't they kind of special with little fold over tabs? Maybe I'm thinking of a different brand..........

Dave,

Yes, that is one of the items that I have being produced. I also should be receiving the gasket that is sandwiched between the two halves of the hub body itself (not between hub and drum) shortly.

I actually had enough remnants of the original hub body gasket between both left and right hubs to re-create the part. The gasket thickness and actual internal cutouts (for cams) were critical to seeing it be as accurate as possible to the originals.

I'm hoping this helps a lot more of the old Dualmatics stay in service. I will have enough gaskets and washers to rehab 100 complete pairs of hubs.

The washers will be of 18 gauge cold rolled steel, laser cut to spec, and finished with a clear zinc coating to help withstand the elements. The gaskets will be just shy of 0.5mm in thickness and die cut using Flexoid treated gasket material.

Tim

  What part would I like to see reproduced? The main body. Most of the DualMatic hubs in my collection have had the attaching bolts overtightened so badly that the body is distorted beyond belief.   BW

Do you mean cutting the threaded ends off?  My Dualmatics will take the threaded end and nut.  Some were made that way and some weren't.

So what's the deal with the washers? I can see that taking the wheel off with the tight tolerance between the Dualmatic and the wheel opening might cause an interference but was that not a problem that was thought of beforehand? Is that why we don't see those original washers around? I have Dualmatics that only have regular lock washers. Is that why the originals are so rare......guys just got sick of removing the Dualmatic bolts just to remove the wheels?

My guess would be that the Dualmatic designers/engineers may have taken into consideration the material their hubs were constructed of and decided that split washers and external/internal tooth washers were too aggressive to positively lock up the bolts. Just look at how deep the gouges are on most sets.
With the limited amount of miles these jeeps see nowadays, how often does one need to remove the wheels, except in extreme cases? But, I agree that the added thickness the washer adds to the circumference of the hub must have been taken into consideration.
I guess I' ll see first hand when I receive them in a week or more.

Date Posted: 18 Jan. 2017 at 5:00am
Ummm, lemme go take a look... well, the ones I have haven't got a single number or marking of any kind.  No label left or anything.  I know that there were two types made, one for the threaded axle and one for the non-threaded and the threaded types are longer than the others.  My first Jeep had the non-threaded axles and the hubs were made for that.  The ones I have currently go on the threaded shafts, because there is room for the nuts.  Kind of "it fits because it fits" circular reasoning, but it's what I have.  Sorry to be of NO help in that regard...Unhappy

I had a specialty gasket company make them for me. I wanted them to stand up to the abuse and do what they were designed to do. They are a part of the original hub system design, but of course didn't survive long.

Thanks Joe. 

I wanted to make sure it was made durable enough to last and withstand any off-road abuse.

I really hate cheaply manufactured parts.

These gaskets are almost always missing and our hubs were designed to have them in place for a reason.

One tip: after installing the hub assembly with the new gaskets, make sure the top of the cam assembly (at the lever) is completely seated into the hub. Otherwise, they will not have the clearance needed to engage the "star" gear.

I was never a fan of the Dualmatic hubs on my old MB but they were sort of period correct for back in the '70's. Those levers always seemed to get bent and when you had to chisel the ice off of them in the winter to turn the levers sort of sucked. But, I never managed to break one either so I suppose they did their job.
Both of my Jeeps are running Warns now and even if one set has an IH on them, the Jeep hasn't rejected them yet.

I've ran with both and never had issues. I think it's all in the maintenance/upkeep either way. Living in SoCal precludes any ice problems.

They just came in.. They are exact duplicates of the original with one exception, they are coated in clear zinc to preserve them a little longer than the originals. The gauge of the material is spot on and they are crisp at the edges due to being laser cut. The fit is right and they are 100% Made in the USA, guaranteed. I'm exploring the feasibility of recreating the arms and possibly the hub itself with a few improvements. That will be up to trademark, copyright, and other legal stuff still being explored. I am happy where we currently are.

I'm certain you could find a bolt with an Allen head on it, but it's not the bolt that people have issues with, it's the tablock washers. I have had zero problems getting my stock Kelsey-Hays wheels off around my Dualmatic hubs with washers installed. Others have had issues.

Hey Tim, do you still have the gaskets and lock tab washers?  I've got an old set I got from a used axle I bought and they are in need of a rebuild.  That being said, have you given any thought to making the rotating levers?  One of mine is broken off and the rest are pretty bent.  I could probably fab something myself, but laser cutting them would be a lot cleaner.  Thanks for the help and let me know if have any questions for me.

I can't say that the Dualmatics were my favorite hubs. My first Jeep had them and they were a PITA but period correct I suppose. If you are a young dumb kid and manage to bury one side of your Jeep in a snow filled ditch, they are a pain to dig down to and then get the levers loose that are frozen in place and you have do get out a screwdriver to pry them out to turn them. A PO managed to bash them up a bit.

Ol' Unreliable came with Dualmatics.  I used to carry a cheap screwdriver for operating the hubs.  I lived in an apartment at the time.  I couldn't believe how many cheap, super-cheesy screwdrivers got stolen there.  The worthless dope heads who lived nearby would steal anything, anything at all.  I wish all those pieces of trash would hurry up and OD on something and die and save us all a lot of trouble.

I sounds like you were around Denver when your screw drivers kept walking off. I grew up in Arvada and worked in Denver. We had to check for winos under the trucks taking a kip before we moved them. I was in Ft. Collins and it was a good storm and we had dig out the driveway for hours, all we had was my square point shovel to do it. I leaned against the house wall and the next morning it was gone. I don't think anybody would ever steal anything that required a physical effort to use. My neighbors had their chairs was removed from their front porch. I suppose it was OK as the thief left them a yard gnome as payment. Don't know where they stole it from.

Todd,

Sorry to hear about your hub lever. I could send you a price list, unfortunately I'm not sure the parts from the 10 spline jeep model will mate up with the 6 spline cruiser version. I have not came across one in person, so I couldn't speak to compatibility of bolt pattern, lever length, or housing diameter. It would be unfair of me to assume they would match up..

I would suggest looking on the web for another 6 spline donor hub to pick clean. Sometime you'll run across someone selling a single hub etc. Knowing when to rebuild your hubs is a personal decision and would be determined by usage. If you have a broken lever, it would be time to remove them, clean them up, check for cracks, re-lube, and reinstall. I wish I could be of more help. Maybe another cruiser owner could help you in your search.

Sincerest apologies, Tim

The Dualmatic on my cruiser looks very similar to yours. Not sure how many splines it is because I didn’t open it up but I will take your word for it. The model number was hard to read but I think it was 285417. The lever length was 82mm and the base height of the unit looked a little more than 3 1/2 inches. Would that be considered tall?

Surely someone here has a lever on a broken hub that they could spare. One of my Dualmatics has a homemade replacement lever. There's really not much to it. This one has a row of center-punch marks on the "LOCK" side. Sometimes Bubba did OK!   BW

I saw a single Dualmatic hub on ebay this morning. Might check there.

There is currently an NOS set for 6 spline Land Cruiser on eBay for $200. It has everything with it as well.

I saw those. Tempting but if I was going to spend that kind of money I would get Aisin’s. Looking for the cheap fix.

Hi Tim - My 1952 CJ3A has what appear to be Dualmatic hubs, but the decal reads "Wards Riverside". I'm guessing that the are Dualmatics re-branded by Montgomery Ward. Have you ever seen this variation, and do you think that Dualmatic parts will work with these hubs?  Thanks, Matt

Matt, looks like a ringer to me. A lot of drivetrain components were rebranded by Department stores back in the day. I might even have a Wards 4WD jeep parts catalog that has them listed.
I would say there is a strong chance that it’s a Dualmatic with a Wards label.

A little off topic, but does anybody have a good source for the original parkerized style bolts? They're 3/8"-16 x 3" with the black finish.

Hello duffmorgan,

All of the Dualmatic parts that I have had replicated are patterned from the original 10 spline Willys CJ2A version hub and/or NOS parts. I couldn't guarantee the fitment of any of them on a Rover Model 2A. If you could provide me with dimensional photos of your Rover hubs, I could tell you if they would fit.

Tim,
Thanks for fast reply!
re:  dualmatic
 
I am sure the gaskets are the dualmatic the Land Rover 1966 2a.
Mine as a tin/data plate in the firewall and the decal on the hub,
the dualmatic locking hubs "optional equipment" or/and dealers.
The gasket has the cut, bolt circle 3 3/4", diameter  4 1/4" and a
thin chrome then 4 7/16" (original !!).
 
So....... buy 4.  I need YOUR address.  $$$ I plan to use cash.
 
Thanks again.

Craig,

I'm sending the gaskets x 2 pair out to you. Try them out and if they are a match let me know and I'll send my address for payment. Otherwise, just mail them back to me.

It brings back a lot of memories seeing this Hub.  My grandfather started Dualmatic Products in Longmont, CO.  Bestop bought them out many years ago.  I working in the factory making the jeep tops.

Can you send me information about the gasket kit?  Also, do you have a rebuild guide?  I'm looking for one.  My levers are HARD to turn.  I probably need a whole tear-down.

Thanks!

Hi Tim,
Do you still have gasket sets available for the Dualmatic hubs? I need enough to rehab 2 pairs of the tall style hubs and one spare set to have for 'shimming' to allow the levers to turn freely on the one set of hubs that I have that are difficult. Please let me know the price for gaskets for 3 pairs of hubs shipped to zip 80538 and how you handle payments. Thank you!  Jim
