Converting Auto Wheel Hubs to Manual

Hi.

I don't want to spend many hundreds of dollars on new automatic locking
wheel hubs for my '91 XLT especially when they will probably not last all
that long.  I found some manual locking hubs at:
http://www.accessconnect.com/warnprehubs.htm.  It says it also needs a
conversion kit.

Can anyone tell me if these are good hubs or if I should get a different
brand?  Is there a better source?  Is this difficult to do?  Will I need to
buy more tools?  Do I need to replace the wheel bearings or other parts
while I'm at it?  Any tips and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

   I bought the Warn hubs. I've got no complaints, and as far as I know
Warn is a very good hub.
