    hubs

    yep, and with those brand new bling cheepo week superwinch hubs sticking so far out they get bashed on anything and everything unless you offset your wheels so rediculously its sickening.

    Plus, with those superwinch hubs and others alike with the 6 to 8 little tiny outer allan heads, they fall out all the time with vibrations.

    Every time you stoip somewhere after losing a pair or two you will be using the little allan key tool you made for your key chain to tighten those little bolts all the time.

    Or

    Just go AISIN...DONE!!!!

    The Isuzu AISIN's are made of steel where as the other import AISIN's are made of alluminum or sheet metal.
    Plus, they stick out the least.

    Don't buy cheep.
    Buy better.
    Sometimes you can go "least expensive"
    but cheep is cheep no matter what sticker or price or advertising you put on it.

    I'll sell you my Used set of AISIN's for $150 + shipping which is at cost for me.
    New try $500 each I've been told.
    Used AISIN's are far more "functional" than Superwinch or warn lockouts for an Isuzu hands down.

    I would rather replace a cheap hub which is easy to do, less than 15 min or so and very trail friendly, than a PITA CV joint which could take hours. If you had problems with the allen screws, how come you didn't just use blue locktite? I think that is about 3 bucks a tube?
