Sounds like a good buy

Firstly they arrived a day early which is always good. I'm not sure if it's MM or Revane. They appear to be of very good quality. As others have said, very simple setup. Probably 30 minutes either way. The hardest part was just aligning the splines, that was easy too. just be patient I ordered them to finally get rid of the horrible Ford vacuum hubs that were always a problem. She. I rarely use 4x4s so getting out and locking/unlocking isn't a problem. I lubricated the screws with blue Loctite.

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Obsolete

Good solid bushings.: Exterior accessory

Installed these on my 2003 F250 and they are significantly better than the original bushings. I originally bought them because I honestly couldn't read the faded markings on the originals and I've probably ridden them more than once. They are very easy to turn on and off. Installation is easy, but the instructions aren't very clear (hence the 4 vs 5 star rating). I had the problem that one side just slipped and the other didn't want to go. The key is that this is a low impact setup. If you hit…

Pros
  • Heavy duty
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Much better than WARN. Great design and functionality!

Very good design. Amazing price. I got mine from Revain Warehouse Deals. They said needed but NO. I bought these for $103.31 for a set of 2 for my 2000 Ford F-250 (TANK). Very satisfied! I also checked out the reviews of these bushes here on Revain. It seems that ANY person who rates them 3 or less has a smaller brain than most animals. A guy says his camshaft fell apart and broke the hub and tie rod? Impossible! How will the lockup damage the F-250 tie rod? Others say the bolts fall out and…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Not sure

I had a socket and got this instead of replacing a standard ESOF socket for my high performance 03. I decided to get rid of them of the esof after finding out that one of mine won't turn off. I would never have known if I hadn't had another problem. I need a reliable car. I originally wanted Warns because I used to have them on my cars. They have the best material and the only downside might be the lack of o-rings on the Allen screws. I'm not worried about them being submerged for that long and

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Not bad

Quality and Availability

Replaced warning bushings that were no longer used on my 2000 F-250 Super Duty. Mileage marker part number 449 s/s. Delivery was as promised. The packaging was good. Goods arrived without scratches. Installation was easy after a call to tech support. All I had to do was rock the axle up and down and side to side to get the new pins into the hub splines. At first I thought they wouldn't fit so I called Mile Marker's Techline and spoke to a guy who told me what and how to get them gliding. I…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Other Other

Be patient. they fit

There is such a thing as "tight fit" and then there are things like that. If you watch this, you're probably in the same boat as I was when I tracked the ESOF hub vacuum leak on my 2004 250 F. I bought them because I was tired of removing the hubs just to unlock the front axle. Overall I like these hubs. I now have Mile Marker hubs on my F250 and Toyota pickup and they are consistent and better than stock. I have two issues with these hubs and they are not a deal breaker. The hubs initially sit

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • I don't really have any complaints about it, everything is fine
