So I want to scrap my OEM autohubs for some manuals. I've never felt confident in the OEM hubs, and sure enough they failed me on the beach and I had to get towed off.

Warn Hubs won't fit on a DRW truck because the hub adapter to give the front wheels a wider stance is too narrow for the Warn to slide in.

Now some folks say that some times the Warns will actually fit, and some folks machined .10 off the hub adapter to get the Warns to fit. I don't like the sound of that.

I asked Mile Marker if they had a manual hub that would fit, and they said they did. Model 449S/S with the 95-32721 kit will fit my truck. I just have to reiterate that I have a dually before I order.

Anybody have Mile Markers on a DRW?

Thanks.

I have them on my truck. All you need are the hubs, you don't need the lock nut kit or whatever they call it to mount them. They fit right inside the dually adapter without removing it or modifying it.

Timing the hubs?

So my drivers side Mile Marker 449ss keeps getting stuck in "lock". I've taken it off and "timed" it twice.
Passenger side worked fine in and out of lock/free but that one is now stuck in lock also....

weird...

That is weird. I have had zero problems with mine so far. They always go on about the timing of the hub but i have not had mine off since i put them in.

It turns out I had a bad base assembly.
Mile Marker sent me a new base, and I'm right as rain.

Locks and unlocks with ease.

Good to know there is some options. Thanks for posting.
