anybody know if there are aftermarket locking hubs for 2006 super duty i wanted to get the warn locking hubs but i was told they dont make a after market hub for this truck :S just want to know if there is truth to this.

 

It's true, Warn doesn't support the Ford D60 after 2004. Mile Marker doesn't support the axle either. Yukon makes a flange kit for off-road use only (basically to fix broken hubs outside the shop), but Dynatrac makes a free-spin kit that entirely replaces the unit bearing assembly. The price tag starts at 2 grand and goes up, you can buy a lot of factory hubs for that much money.

 

thanks for the info,

 

Not according to the Warn website.

Putting in 2006 F-250 with a D-60 reverse front axle returns a part number of WAR20990 for the premium (Gold) hubs.

You may want to call them at 888-219-0090 and verify the information.

 

Redford, I promise I didn't go off half cocked on my post. I spent a lot of time a few years ago with Warn trying to find a way to make it work, I even thought I found a way a few times, but the bearing assembly just isn't compatible with Warn hubs.

Neither of Warn's application chart lists a part for a post-2004 SD with 35 spline outers:
Warn Industries - Standard Manual Hub Application Chart
Warn Industries - Standard Manual Hub Application Chart

The Warn Premium "Custom App D60 with 35 Spline Outers" is, according to an e-mail I got from Warn, not compatible with the Ford axle without machining the stub shaft length. Here's the thread where I got ALL excited because I thought I'd found a way to make it work. Not so lucky:

Krewat went even further with a parts diagram (the link's broken now) that showed how even the 35 spline Warn hub, irregardless of shaft length, would be unable to bolt to the bearing assembly in the newer SDs.

Even if you go to Warn's product search and enter a 2006 F250, nothing comes up.

All my research points at we're SOL on hubs on these axles, and I haven't found anything since that 2008 thread to make it look any different. The kingpin D60 out of older Fords is still the preference in the off-road world, and without their demand for a hub, there isn't going to be one.



EDIT: I ran the part number WAR20990 and that seems to be for 19 spline outers in a D44, not sure if that's TTBs or solid or if that even matters (a '96 Bronco should have had a 44TTB IIRC, but I'm not sure about the Chevy's that use PN20990). It has a tech note about getting a 'spindle nut conversion kit' to go from 3-bolt auto hubs to the 6-bolt Warn hubs, but the shaft diameters and a few other differences would probably make putting that in a SD impossible. I'm not saying that with enough try you couldn't Franken-fab two hubs, a conversion kit, and a new stub shaft into something workable, but that's a lot of work to replace a factory hub that isn't all that bad.

 

My research yielded the same results... nothing but OEM is available at this time.
