I have about 30k on mine I like them a lot I haven't had one problem with them I have beat them in the desert with no issues at all. I paid 14,400 for them delivered to my door. Actually the only problem I have had is the brakes are so big I couldn't balance them with weights they would hit my Wheel so I now use balancing beads which I love.

I have 8 months and 9k miles on them with a Hemi pushing. Great axle.
Only thing to watch is your your front wheels for play. My unit bearing nuts were loose. Torqued them down and are good to go.

I have them in mine and am very, very happy with them.
Here is my build thread: https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-g...-build-293351/
We have awesome pricing on these axles and we know them inside and out, top to bottom.

Also if you upgrade from the Warn hubs to Yukon, you may have an issue with the clicking style lock nut these come with and will have to change over to traditional nut.

Installed these this spring and now have 20K miles on them without any issues. Have the 4.88 running
37 inch toyo r/t tires on trailready wheels. I use my jeep as an expedition more than a rock crawler.
Last week when on a trail with a 10,000 ft summit I really loved having the huge brakes on the descent.

We have had the same experience on ours. These actually dont unit bearings. Its the jam nut on the spindle that is the issue. Also if you upgrade from the Warn hubs to Yukon, you may have an issue with the clicking style lock nut these come with and will have to change over to traditional nut.
