turbopath Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 (edited) ok, my hubs and bearings are shot. The guy I bought this pathy from didn't know what grease was. The junkyard says I can only use hubs from 1/98 and up on my 98 pathy. Is this true? I'm half tempted to pick up a set of warn hubs, but I spend my winters driving on ice and it would really be inconvenient to stop every time I had to throw the truck in 4 hi. EDIT: would it be a bad thing to run around with the warn hubs locked all winter? Edited April 17, 2006 by turbopath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racer38 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Thats what I do, lock em in at the start of winter and leave em till spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbopath Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 OK, I'm confused. When you order hubs from the factory, it looks like they come with the entire spindle hub. ie..wheel bearings and the thing that holds your wheel studs. From the pics of the warn install, they are just the center piece correct? I guess that doesn't really solve my problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbopath Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 actually, the races are destroyed on my hubs. So I need new ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzy Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 EDIT: would it be a bad thing to run around with the warn hubs locked all winter? nope, it's pretty much the same as running your truck like it has stock hubs if you do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
