Manual Hub Questions

Well i have some weird squaking sounds in the front end of my truck. today i finialy figured out what it was when i had nikki driving the truck after i got it stuck and was trying to get it out. My hubs are squeaking like crazy and they need replace they have around 120k on them. I was on the warn web sight and saw the standard hubs and the premium hubs. i would really like to get the premium ones but i cant find them for the ranger.


1. does warm make a premium hub for the 93-97 rangers?

2. what are other good brands if not better brands?

3. does avm make hubs for my year?


Thanks


Cam

I have Superwinch.. they are not better than Warn, but I have not had any problems with them, and they're turning my 35's just fine.. only thing is, they are a bit noisy when they aren't locked, cuz they rattle.. pretty annoying..

1. It doesn't look like Warn makes a premium hub for Rangers (Warn Industries - Premium Manual Hub Application Chart), but they do make standard hubs (Warn Industries - Standard Manual Hub Application Chart).

BUT....

Check this article out:

Warn Jeep hub conversion for the Ford Ranger

Apparently Warn makes a stronger Dana 35 hub for the Jeep Wrangler that's an exact fit to the TTB Rangers (P/N 37780). If you do a google search for this part it will come up on amazon.com and a others. I looked at the amazon picture and it looks the same as Warn's premium hubs.

2: Milemarker makes them (http://www.milemarker.com/pdf_downlo...s_appchart.pdf)

3: Yes AVM makes them for 90-97 (Products AVM)
