I like the MileMarker stainless hubs with brass locking ring. However, their is nothing wrong with either the Superwinch or Warn hubs, either.

I have the Milemarker stainless hubs with the brass dials like Mike C. They work great and have taken the abuse for about 7 years now. No problems.

I have warns on the scout, the originals were a combo auto/locker (quite nice, auto hub but you have the locker option which is stronger than the autos). It took abuse for a while and then got changed because my dad just didn't want autos. The warns on there now have taken abuse for 15 years now and show no wear.

I use the original hubs and innerds that came with my trucks. They have the blue center. I abused the h*ll out of them and never had a problem. Mud raced for 5 yrs and now do dirt draging. I do clean them out and repack them once a year though...I like the original look too.

I've got warns on my 72, have yet to tear one up, and it sees plenty of abuse. Also a big fan of the milemarkers mentioned above, have a set ready for if the warns ever give up.
