This part is not correct. There really is no "locked hubs", it is a simple solid steel "slug". It is about 3/4" thick with splines on the outer edge to match the hub and inside to fit the axle. It is virtually impossible to ruin one of these "drive flanges".
They might be slightly hard to find because they have not been installed from the factory for about 30 years. There should be thousands of them out there though in wrecking yards and probably some sitting around every 4 wheel drive shop in the country. I have personally thrown away hundreds of them after doing the conversion.

Bad planning on your part does not necessarily constitute an instant emergency on my part....

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
