I had them on my '97. They were a strong unit. IMO they are as good as the normal Ranger Warn's.

Hubs:

Nut Conversion Kit: (you WILL need this if you have auto hubs now)

Do not get them from 4 Wheel Parts. They suck as a store. Summit is the bomb!

i seen them on there, the only reason i was gonna get from 4wheel parts is because i have to get the nuts from them with the part # 28068x thats supposed to be like 5 dollars a side instead of the kit summit offers.

You DO need the nuts IF you are going from auto hubs to manual hubs; there is NO way around that.
