01 Explorer XLS Front Hubs

Need some oponions guys. Im getting ready to redo the front end on my wifes 01 explorer. Which hubs would you all recomend? I have looked at the Moog on Rockauto, which some people have told me to get and I have also hear the Timken ones are good? This is a daily driver, primarilary the kid hauler. the only time it see's the offroad is when I drive it during hunting season. Should I maybe look at the cheaper OEM hubs and save some money or stick with a good name brand. any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

My vote is Timkens. You should be able to get them from Rock Auto, I just got one for my F150 from them.

Use the Timken Easy to install last forever. The OEM will eat your lunch on price you also want manual locking.
