Lock out hubs broken

I did a swap from auto to lock outs 5 years ago and have not had any issues until our first snow just before christmas. The hubs usually will lock by hand, but when tried this last time the passenger side wouldn't turn all the way so I left it alone until I could take the cap off and have a look. Inside the cap are three spring steel fingers,and all three were broken off. They look like they can be replaced as there is a snap ring holding things in place. Is there some place these finger assemblies can be bought, they are mile marker stainless hubs, but mile marker doesn't show anything on it's website for parts.Truck is a 2000 F350 superduty crewcab. Thanks....................Al

not positive, but i am pretty sure the mile marker stainless hubs are lifetime warranty. just like the warns are. i would take them to a speed shop and see what they say.
when i had a warn break they swapped both hubs no question asked.

Couldn't find any warranty info with whoever I talked to at Mile Marker, but there is parts available, the fingers I need are $15.00 for a pair.

You need proof that you bought them, and after 5 years I don't think I could find any. So for $15.00 that the parts cost, I'll settle for that.

I don't remember if there was a card to send in after purchase that would put me on record as the original buyer of the hubs.

That's rather annoying. My experience with Warn has been no questions asked.

This is not my experience with warns. I had to have proof of purchase as in the original receipt. After looking for a week I found mine then it was a no questions asked situation

For $15.00 I'm not complaining, it fixed what was wrong, and I'm back on the road. Thanks for all the help
