Hub Exploded

[adamsbro2]

I haven't heard anything good about the auto hubs!! Both first gens ive owned had auto hubs when i bought them and neither worked so both got replaced with manual. However i did recently have a manual hub blow out on me for the first time so!!!

I am not talking about some later, not available originally on our truck version auto hub. I am talking about the ones that came on our trucks. The plastic guts and cheap almost potmetal housing ones. A good auto hub can be just as tough as a good manual one. But the Ford ones that came on our trucks were not good.

The ones that came on my truck were good. I've never had a problem. The later revised ones were sort of an acknowledgement by Ford that the originals weren't as good as they could have been, though.

All of the hubs have that potmetal alloy housing, even the newest manual Warns.
