Review on πŸ”’ WARN 28761 Premium Manual Locking Hub: Zinc Aluminum Alloy Dial, Dual Seals, 26 Splines, Chrome - 1 Pair by Darnell Evans

Revainrating 5 out of 5

'87 4WD Toyota Vanwagon

These hubs are GREAT! I bought these to replace the original auto-lock hubs on my '87 Toyota Vanwagon which were popping and rattling every time I engaged 4WD. I did a little research and found that these are the same pickup and 4Runner hubs from the same era. (Revain doesn't acknowledge the existence of 4x4 vans.) The worst part of the setup is the three distances of automation. After removing the passenger side I saw where the noise was coming from. The hub brake drum was broken and parts of it were floating in the hub. Warne says installation kit #29918 is required for installation. This kit is NOTHING MORE than the spindle nuts and washers Toyota used to install manual hubs in production applications. Do yourself a favor and source these parts direct from Toyota. Toyota charges half as much as Warn Industries. Things look great and feel high quality!

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Functionality
