Not very much....really. You MIGHT break even on materials for rebuild and paint. Just send them to me for a tax deduction at the end of the year. You could make'm with a real high value then. Big business does it all the time.

(On a serious note, a light coat of grease would keep the internals from rusting until you do sell them.)

Ken,
Just forgetting to unlock them and driving them that way won't hurt them. I'll bet you just need to grease them. Unless, it's something else squeaking. And unless, of course, you just want new hubs.

Right now I have WARN hubs..and i cant say they've done me wrong. My other option is to put these on the truck, take the WARNs and rebuild those and sell those. I know the aisin are stronger, so that would be the wise move....

NO...it WON'T. Man, I leave'm locked all the time. Ask anyone around Yotatech....they'll tell you the same. The only thing that WILL f$%k up is if it you have it in 4wd. Then, you're damaging the drivetrain, but...still...not the hubs. And factory hubs are Aisin. You have a Toyota, don't you? Do you have manual hubs, even?

Aisins are factory hubs Somtimes they have different names on them, but look exactly the same

Oh and btw, these hubs are for IFS, they have a different spline number then the solid front axle hubs.

Aisins are the strongest hub you can buy for these trucks.

Warns are good, but I like Aisins. Call me a purist about that. Yah, sell the Warns. I'm sure there's a Jeep out there in need.

Right...avatar...truck...SFA. Good point.

BTW, since when did they have different names on them? I've never a set from factory that didn't say Aisin.

Don't know much about the history there between the two companies relationship, but like Aisin/Seiki.. which you will see on a lot of Toyota parts... you will see ASCO/Aisin. But, yes... it's the same.
