There are times in life where you just have to try everything you can...
then toss a coin anyway to decide.

A friend of mine made this handy stand from an engine stand for working on axles. Something like this might make life a little easier for you.

No keys on the front axle the hubs are turned either by the drive flanges or the locking hubs not a key like the rears.

There is a key slot on the front hub. It is for the bearings.

There are slots that fit into them so the adjustments on the bearings don't change much.

There's a keyway or slot on the spindle, not in the axle or in the hub. The two washers that go in with the nuts that control bearing adjustment have tabs that fit into the slot so that they can't turn. BW

This is the one that Walcks sells. Most of your local auto parts places stock them, but the kid behind the counter probably won't be able to find it. |

are they different then the other clips that go on the back? in pic two you can see i have a new one on the inner of the brake hose. i have a bag of those in the shop but i couldn't get one to slide onto it, its like theirs to much metal in the bracket to slide it in.

As far as I know, the clips are pretty much universal. They might differentiate a little bit in style from one to another, but I don't think there is much real difference in any of them. I usually give them a little tap with a hammer to get them in.
Smarter people than me might know differently.

Stay away from the ones sold by Crown. I bought some and they have no spring in the metal after putting them in once the second time they wouldn't hold at all.
