it was kinda weird. we have a place where my friends dad owns a construction company and he let us build up rock piles ,,mud holes,ruts ,and all kind of good stuff. well,,,me and some friends went there today. i was in my ranger,,a friend had a 78 chevy,,,another had a 84 ford,,,and another in a 76 dodge. the first rock pile i was on i broke a hub. then everyone else broke at least one,,,or the ford broke both hubs.i have warn hubs on my 93 ranger,,and everyone else had warn premiums. whats up with these hubs? i have mile marker hubs on my Z71 with 39 boggers and have never broke one. i just think that this is kinda strange.

Nothing is unbreakable. You better go knock on some wood now, else you'll break both those MileMarker hubs next time out :D
At least the warns are warrantied. Cheap enough to carry spares too, then send the broke ones back for warrantly...

with that group of trucks and all you broke were a few hubs? i'd say you got off easy.
it is kind of freaky that you all broke the same part.............:D

You were breaking hubs because they are the cheesy "top hat" style hubs. Just like the ones Jeeps get in their front hub conversion kits.
Collect what you can find of the Warn hubs, take it back to where you got it, and get some new ones for free. They have a lifetime guarantee.
