locking hubs ?
Howdy guys,
I currently have mile marker hubs and the cover / end caps won't stay tight so I plan to replace them.
Any recommendations for what locking hubs are the most rugged / reliable ?

Re: locking hubs ?
Not cheap but worth it in my opinion. I can't speak to the dana 44 locks but they're the same design as my dana 60 locks. I'm highly impressed with mine. https://www.yukongear.com/productdetail ... odID=12616

Re: locking hubs ?
I've always been partial to the Warn Premium hubs. I would probably buy some of those Yukons if my pocket book were a little fatter!

Warn is the affordable and well known upgrade, but Yukon is BA.

Re: locking hubs ?
If you can find a set of factory, rumors are that they're the strongest of the non-Yukon options.

Re: locking hubs ?
I've been running Warn Premiums for several years and they have been solid. But I too wouldn't hesitate to go with Yukons if you can justify it ($335). My warns have taken some hits on the outside and the Yukon's don't stick out as far. Looks like Warns are $237. <--- not correct price...see below.

Re: locking hubs ?
I just searched online and clicked on the first Amazon link. I didn't get too specific other than they looked like mine. I do recall not spending that much on mine either, but I also bought them from an individual.
But to be accurate the part number appears to be PN 20990 and those are $110. I'll edit my original post.

Re: locking hubs ?
Well I bit the bullet and got some Yukon’s ordered up.
I was able to buy them on amazon using some of my Amex rewards points so no actual cash had to be deployed from my wallet.
Thanks for the great recommendations fellas !

Re: locking hubs ?
If I have learned anything from hanging around you guys it is
1) body lifts are mandatory 2) hardtops are for little boys 3) and now, bikini tops are bare minimum solution to all problems
awesome !
