: Whats Better? Internal or External Hubs Jonathan M 03-18-2002, 11:00 AM I need some opinions on what locking hubs are better? I have the chance to swap external or internal hubs on a chevy 44 front I have. Whats better? Both are Warn premium... I also have a set of the full time slugs for spares......... The Rockslut 03-18-2002, 11:16 AM Internal are far superior than external. The external ones WILL keep breaking bolts no matter what you try. Just go internal and carry the slugs for spares. 1TONTJ 03-18-2002, 11:23 AM Yep internal. EASY to change - don't even have to take off a wheel. Just remove cap, un-do two snap rings and replace. Nice and easy and the Warn's are lifetime waranteed ;) Phil CJBoxer 03-18-2002, 12:02 PM Originally posted by 1TONTJ Yep internal. EASY to change - don't even have to take off a wheel.

Just ask H8 or amyone who pushes the strenght of a 44. The hubs can go but put in a slug and you are goos to go but sheer of the bolts like an external, you are in for some work.

Back off, I have seen a 35c with a super kit live where a 60 would break :rolleyes: :flipoff2: oldjeep 03-29-2002, 10:52 AM Originally posted by Gozuki This is like debating 35c or 60...

I was at Tellico last year for the Dixie Run when I saw two 35c's crawling back down the mountain with logs strapped so the shafts wouldn’t walk out while the big boys were still bouncing on the rocks. Don't get me wrong I have a 35c but lets call a spade a spade or a clip a clip. :usa: Military Jeeper 04-04-2002, 09:18 PM Stick to internal.........you can always keep a spare ex though.

Chrisjeep7 04-05-2002, 07:00 AM what sarcasm? :rolleyes: Chris G. Gozuki 04-05-2002, 09:14 AM Yeah, 35c are bad ass... All the strength of a 60, with the clearance of a dana 35...Ya can't lose with one...:rolleyes: | |
