I wonder how much they cost. What makes them so great??? Didn't see much info on it.
 






Very cool looking. The hub assemblies are the weak point on the early explorers. As a few have found out, even the manual locking hubs can give out when offroading.
 






I'd like to hear more info on these, but they look to be in the price range of " if you have to ask how much, you can't afford them!"

From the photos it looks like they are using the external bolt hubs most commonly found on Jeep front axles (not the best, but stronger than anything available prior). It also appears that the hubs have the 5x5.5" "full-size" bolt pattern.
 






looks great

Looks great.
Where can i get them and how much are they. also would like to see the spec. sheet for it
 






I guess the big question is, How strong are they?

You dont' want them to be any stronger than the u-joints or any other parts in the front end. You want the hubs to be the weak link (just not too weak).

Think of a hub as a fuse for the front end. You want the cheapest/easiest part to fix to break instead of a u-joint, ring gear etc.
 






excellent point Maniak.... Camburg builds off road race quality stuff so I'm sure they are very nice, very strong, and well, expensive. They would look nice on my front end though!!!!!! I've got their radius arms to match.

Doug,
Did you see the Explorer in the classified section on race-dezert? Sounds almost identicle to mine except for the front shocks...
