My buddy has his delaminate right after he got his sled. They gave him warranty on a new tri hub.

We switched him out to a set of fabcraft wheels, we built his an axle spacer and away he went. Hasnt had an issue with them since.

Has anyone broke one of the tri hub setups? Ive seen a few guys mess up the old style rear idlers, but havent heard much about these. Im kind of impressed.

I haven't heard of them breaking, but delaminating is common. Mine delaminated around 1200 miles.

I pulled my tri hubs out of my XF's and 3 of the 4 bearings were bad. The new tri hubs have NO rubber on them. All plastic.
Can they get any cheaper? The wheels looked like he!!, flash all over them, looked terrible.
Not replaceable bearings. For 30.00/ea, I can hardly setup and machine snap rings and replace the bearings. Maybe once I accumulate I pile of them I will.

I have bounced of a lot ugly ditch stuff and have not any problems. With the way they bolt together, I think it would be pretty touch to break them. The bearing will fall out before then imo.

Had one go bad within 500 miles no time for warranty just oredered off country cat they were cheap like $30 a piece. Makes a helluva racket back there with some nasty vibration noise that you never want to hear.
