I noticed that too. I had thought that maybe those were not Warn part numbers but the Bronco Graveyards stock numbers. I dunno, I wish someone would buy a pair of the 35 spline hubs and try them. I'd like to be able to know I'm giving people accurate information.

Personally to me it doesn't matter. I have a 2004. My stock hubs are working fine, but I assume they are going to fail some day and a set of Warn Premiums will go on at that time.

Probably for the most part the Ford (Warn) 05 and up are pretty reliable so im sure few have been purchased. But in reality if you need a replacement buying the OEM gets you the Warn technology anyway i guess. The 11702/A's look better IMO and probably a bit cheeper than the "OEM's"/Warns from a dealer.

Here's the Warn press release from what Andy (furian) mentioned earlier being a Ford supplier.
