front hubs.....

I am now in the process of looking for a set of warn manual hubs for my 96 xlt, 5.0. I am doing this because there is a popping coming from the wheels while going down the road. I am assuming that this is what the problem is because, they are automatic hubs and i have heard that this is not a rare problem whith this type of hub. My question is does anyone now where i could buy a set of warn manual hubs at a fairly cheap price. I live in south central alabama so, I am figuring that the internet is going to be my best bet. Any suggestions would be greatly apreciated and, thanks in advance.

hey guys thanks for the replies. So far 4x4cyberstore has been the cheapest by about 10 bucks. and, they have free shipping on warn hubs. My question now is after driving my bronco for a little while and it set for about 30 minutes. The auto hubs were piping hot to the touch . Are they suppose to get this hot or do i definately need to replace them with the warn manual hubs?

Don't just assume the noise is coming from the hubs. Yes is could be, but it could also be wheel bearings. That is what I would look at if the hubs are hot after driving.

You can get perfectly fine hub locks at any parts store. I got my MileMarkers at O'Reilly for $60 and they have the same LLT warranty that Warns have. They've taken all the abuse I've put them thru, with no problems after ~200Kmi. No shipping delay or shipping dosts for warranty returns.
