Looks like a manual hub conversion kit to me! That is a good price but I would think thats all you need. Someone else that knows will chime in though Im sure.

The right ones? so the factory spicer spindle nuts are not the correct ones? are they better when warn buys them and repackages them with their logo?

well hubs are generally sold individually in most instances and with the right part numbers can be cheaper than any "kit" out there. Especially if you are buying manual hubs new you can buy the warn 37780 which are a stronger housing than the ford warn hubs. The hubs are identical except the 37780s are about 3 pounds heavier because they use a better metal in the housing which keeps them from grenading quite as much...
