Anyone got em?

I'm trying to decide between Rugged Ridge or Warn. Rugged Ridges will cost me 220$ and Warn's about 260$.

Went with Rugged Ridge 15001.61 from RockAuto.com Lifetime warranty, sound like good quality. Will post the results

I have the Warn #29091 hubs on my 2001 Qx4.
Back when my sibling still had his 2002 Pathfinder, he also installed these same Warn hubs.

You have a 2000 Pathfinder, so I'm not sure if the model # is the same, but I only bought mine for $160USD/178CAD.
but just for reference...

Today, they're $166USD/$185CAD

BTW, neither myself nor my sibling ever offroaded with our rigs - mainly used for city driving... but so far the Warns are holding up on my rig at least

Well I cancelled my order for the RuggedRidge hubs and went with Warn from Amazon. I had a read a few negative reviews about the RRs as well.

Donald, did you notice any difference in MPG?

unfortunately, I saw little to no change change in MPG. Others may say otherwise, but for me I didn't see large mpg improvements as I would have thought.

here's my experiments for collecting mpg data before/after hub install
Before:
* 2 tanks of 87 octane
* 2 tanks of 89 octane
* 2 tanks of 91 octane

and then the same after.

I drive pretty average (i think?). I commute about 70miles in 1 day, of which maybe 20miles is city, and the other 50 is highway - but that often is negated when I encounter traffic even on the highways.

I really didn't see any variation before and after hub install. That is, I didn't see anything significant. If anything, it was 1 or 2mpg but inconsistently.
To me, significant difference would be a consistent 5mpg, either up or down - which I didn't see.

After realizing there wasn't a noticeable mpg benefit for me, I figured the other benefit of having manual hubs is
(1) less wear on your front transaxle and drive shafts
(2) capability to continue driving if there were significant damage to the front drive shafts or CV
(3) looks nice

Thanks for the info. I would be happy with 1 ot 2 mpg, and the less wear and tear is a bonus. I keep track of my mileage pretty regularly. I will update with any difference after the install.

I have had the warns for a year or so and have done regular offroading with them. found them to be very durable and smooth action when engaging/disengaging hubs. Maybe a slight improvement in mpg, but definitly makes the steering lighter and just feels like it drives better in general without having to spin the front drivetrain all the time. You will be glad you did it. Install is SUPER easy. Don't even have to take the wheels off. Good investment for sure. Be sure to engage them every month or so for a short spin just to keep your front drivetrain and the locking mechanism lubricated and moving smoothly.

Has anyone used milemarker hubs from advanced auto?
