Is that each side or for both?

Are they lifetime warranty hubs?

Dude, if you're gonna pay that much you might as well go ahead and get the hub conversion. That way next time you need new bearings or what have you, you can avoid replacing the whole unit. But don't feel alone, there's a shop up here that wants 2grand to install an exhaust brake, my Quad Adrenaline, Air Dog 150, and and a gauge pod.

I looked into that years ago. IIRC they were more than the Auto hubs.

Well I was up in the mountains scouting for elk the other day. I walk out in front of my truck and see gear oil all over the inside of my right front tire.

The shop says that it may be residual from when they pulled the axle, but they say it is probably the seal on the 3rd member.

What do you all think?

So are the saying axle shaft seal or the gasket around your front diff? Check your gear oil... Your running amsoil aren't you? If so did they fill it up with something different when done?
