Focking Hubs! - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

MaxCrack · 10-05-2001, 03:27 PM

I took apart my dana 60 last night to replace the bearings and seals and king pins and the outer retaining ring in the hubs broke. ON BOTH SIDES!! <IMG SRC="smilies/pissed.gif" border="0"> Can I get a replacement fairly easily? And where? The locking hubs are stock, I believe (plastic dial), should I bother, or should spend even more money <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0"> and get some Warn's? ARRGGGHHH! I wanted to have this thing in my truck and working this weekend.

Thanks for your help. <IMG SRC="smilies/jeep2.gif" border="0">

The thing with the ears on it or the thing that the allen head bolts go into? The warns are junk compared to the spicers. <IMG SRC="smilies/smokin.gif" border="0">

I would go for the warns ,I have never run spicers. I have a set of the warns on my CTD and have had no problems so far and if I break a warn they have a lifetime warranty.

you're complaining about hubs on a D60????

sorry man, I'm not real sympathetic

I've done this myself 5 times in the last 9 months, and seen it done about 4 more

luckily warn stands behind their warranty
