MileMarker also makes good hubs, according to many who use them. Also, check our sponsors ...
I did the Warn Premiums a few years back the first time my ESOF hubs started to unlock after the vacuum "lock" pulse ended.
I've done some pulling in the woods, trees, rocks, stumps, you name it - with all the hopping the front-end did in these situations, I'm sure the stockers would have failed.

$200 is definitely worth it. Especially compared to the cost of new Ford hubs. It's the going price though. Sometimes youw ill find a retailer that is way lower than another, but not in the case of warn premium hubs.

Good thread, I was just thinking about which hubs I wanted to buy.
What happened to your Superwinches? I've always known that Warn sets the standard for hubs, but I was just wondering if they were really worth the premium price. I am interested in hearing about any breakages anyone has had with their aftermarket hubs!

I got mine from Advanced Auto Parts online store, They had them at my door in 2 days with standard shipping. They were 239.00 plus local tax for the Premiums. Could probably get them a little cheaper but I do not like to wait for parts. Plus winter is around the corner and my stock hubs finally died at 165,000.

One thing that was interesting to me, was Warn offered "fuses" for their hubs. In essence, they break when the torque gets so high that you're going to break an axle stub or axle.

Too bad it says they are discontinued.
