Thanks Chris for the update. Sounds good. Also thanks for trying something untested on a heavier rig with the 3:07.
We really didn’t know how that would work out. So glad it worked for you!
Honestly I don’t have anyone with 2:87 running Eco Hubs that I know of. Is this a M1078? 1500 at 60 looks ok.
We are learning every day on this stuff. I would think staying out of overdrive would actually let the transmission run a little cooler.
If you didn’t like the hubs I bet you...
In one of my earlier posts I did a simple fuel mileage run and reported 11.03 mpg. 50 miles each way 60/65 mph
2001 m1078 3126 274 hp stock. I know it’s hard to believe but that’s what it got.
Good looking truck! Thank you for the review and videos! I was wondering if you were in 1st gear (manually shifted) 1 on those step
ups. You truck didn’t seem to struggle at all! What a nice area to off-road! Great to hear it’s working out for you!
I have several customers installing Eco Hubs on 3:07 trucks the reviews should be very soon. Lead time if I put you on the list today
I would say 3 weeks…. Shipping quite a few next week . EDM is the slow part right now (Working On that)!
Snake oil, that’s cute! What would you name these hubs? Super hi speed ?? I won’t say what I actually think, that would probably get me banned. You would like that I bet. I have no affiliation with General Disorder and can assure you he paid full price for his hubs! So what’s...
I just received some really cool gaskets for the ECO HUBS today! They are made of .016 stainless steel and then a thin layer of high temp rubber is bonded to them. A small amount of silicon sealer would still be required around the half plugs.
The cost of gaskets would be an additional...
Ok guys I just received some really nice gaskets for the ECO HUBS! They are made of .016 stainless steel with a Thin layer of
High temp rubber bonded to it. You would still need a small amount of silicone sealant on the half plugs. I will post prices
in the vendor section. I would like...
I haven’t had anyone test the 3:07 setup with ECO HUBS yet. I’m sure it will be done. At this point I don’t see any problem with
installing the ECO HUBS. You might not get into second overdrive and maybe not first overdrive?? I’ve got a couple of guys that’s going to try it and let us...
Ive got a few 6x6 sets to make up and ship. Then will fix you up! Heat treat is a little slower than I would like, and the EDM takes time. We are getting set together and shipping almost every day! Shipped two today! Your going to love them!
Another page of ECO HUB instructions…….
WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
Use caution on first test drives! The speedometer
Will read half of actual speed!
WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
The truck will not make as much engine noise, reduction noise is eliminated...
An update for everyone following this project. Just completed another run of Drive plate adapters. Better finish on metal
surfaces, added a drain/fill hole. Also added a 5/16x18 threaded hole to help remove the drive plate when needed. All the new sets
will ship with these new features...
