Review on πŸ” High-Performance 29091 Premium Manual Locking Hub with Zinc Aluminum Alloy Dial and Chrome Finish, Dual Seals, 28 Splines - 1 Pair by Sean Huff

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Missing gasket, poorly packaged but hubs (and bolts) work fine.

The hubs are ok and (regardless of what others say) the supplied screws are ok too - do not turn, just tighten to an acceptable torque and lock nuts and you'll be strong as a rock. .What I didn't like was that the seller sent me a box with 2 hubs but only 1 seal. The only gasket that came with it was also broken on one side, no doubt bent from simply tossing it loose in the crate with over 20 pounds of steel hubs, with no cardboard backing or attempt to protect the gasket from damage during transit time. It was about to dump a bunch of ice and snow, so instead of returning it to the seller, I went to Walmart and bought some RTV (Permatex Grey) and used it to seal the outer hubcap. Worked fine, job done. I just removed the hubs for their first 4WD debut on fresh ice and snow and they work really well - my Xterra felt "stuck" on the choppy, icy road. These sockets are also BOXED. VERY BAD, and the seller sent me a box with parts missing, but the hubs themselves work fine.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • old
