The Lisle part numbers you have look like 4WD spindle nut sockets...you definitely need one of those to break these down (and what I would assume you had to use to take the first lock nut off if it was assembled in the correct order). I got my socket off the rack for $20 from AutoZone (OEM brand, part #25072A), but everybody's got them I think. That socket engages the lock nuts, not that retaining washer.
Here's a good hub breakdown link...it's a Jeep Dana 44...but the sequence is the same:

If you're talking about the locking hub assembly themselves...I didn't have to do any breakdown there...I slid the old Warns out and the new Warns in.
I hope this helps.

Thanks, ok, you were on the right page, i was not! In fact i had the right tool, just didn t remove the retaining washer, picked that off, and now at the next retaining nut. PO didn t assemble with all the pieces. Luckily, i have a 4X4 shop around the corner, and he has all the OEM parts that were missing, but first, i believe i have a cross threaded nut
Starts to spin freely, then binds
Good link, thanks for sharing, and your time. God knows you have your hands full
