You could engage 4x4 (while stopped) every once in a while then drive around to spin the front end if you're worried about dry u-joints.
Also better hope that the wife remembers to lock the hubs and doesn't happen to twist that little **** to 4x4 High like she's used to doing while rolling down the road. I imagine that the electric transfer case engagement is much less forgiving than the manual lever that gives instant feedback if the hubs aren't locked.

I called Solid Axle almost a year ago to order mine. They said their latest run had just sold out. But then the girl said she new where I could get them, after looking through the order slips, she found that KLMperformance had bought a good portion of the kits. So I called those guys up and ordered a lot more than just the hubs, I also got Carli ball joints and a few other things. I don't remember the exact cost of the hubs, but I didn't pay what their asking now. I just checked their website and it says almost $2000.
Also says they are out of stock.

I just recently got done putting this SolidAxle SpynTec Kit on and lots of people wanted to see how far the hubs stick out. Steers better, less vibrations, and hopefully better MPG's though I doubt it. Gonna press some new U-joints into the front driveshaft this weekend and get that put back in.
The big advantage to this kit is I can rebuild these hubs both for under $60 as opposed to $400 for a single stock unit bearing. Plus there is less wear and tear on the driveshaft and axle end U-joints since they no longer spin. The new 2wd LOW gear will be nice if I have to back up a trailer as well. :SPIN:
