Includes pair of premium locking hubs, o-ring seals, and hardware. Requires spindle nut kit PN 32721 when replacing factory automatic hubs. May interfere with late model dual wheel hub extensions
Internal mount hub for 1-ton front axles with 30-spline out shafts. GM, Ford, Dodge from 1976 through 2004 on select models.
No-compromise hub designed for those who will accept nothing less than the industry standard in performance and iconic style
The Warn premium Hub is a no compromise hub designed for the hardcore off roader or truck owner who will accept nothing less than the industry standard in performance. The all-metal construction and ZA Alloy dial ensure years of reliable functioning. This dial requires a full 9/10ths of a turn to ensure positive engagement of the inner drive gear to the clutch ring. To make sure they stay engaged, Warn premium hubs use a thick internal wave spring and heavy dial detents. We know our premium hubs will be used hard, so we build them to last.

WARN Industries has built off-road recovery equipment since 1948, beginning with locking wheel hubs and expanding into the electric winch that made the brand a standard. The lineup covers truck, Jeep and SUV winches, powersports winches, industrial and hydraulic hoists, bumpers, mounting systems and rigging gear, manufactured in Clackamas, Oregon.
Arthur and Sadie Warn founded WARN Industries in 1948 with an idea for converting surplus World War II Jeeps into practical road vehicles. Arthur's locking wheel hub was the product that did it, and it went on to reshape the four-wheel-drive market. By 1954 WARN hubs were offered as factory optional equipment by major domestic automakers, and over the following decades the company supplied hubs as original equipment to Chrysler, Ford, GM, Kia, Nissan and others.
The defining moment came in 1959 with the electric winch. Before it, a vehicle-mounted winch ran off a power take-off and needed the engine turning to work. An electric winch could pull even with the vehicle stalled on a hill, which changed what recovery meant for four-wheelers, racers and ranchers. The M8274 arrived in 1974 and remains in the line. Today's truck, Jeep and SUV winches include the VR EVO, ZEON and ZEON Platinum families.
As the ATV market grew through the 1980s, WARN introduced the first purpose-built powersports winch and created a category. The current ATV and UTV winch range includes the VRX and AXON lines, the latter using a combined motor and contactor unit that cuts installation time substantially. Vehicle-specific winch mounts, bumpers and plow systems complete the fitment.
On the work side, WARN builds electric and hydraulic industrial winches and hoists for towing, utility, military and severe-duty applications, from the compact Drill Winch through 30,000 pound Series XL units and the modular Series G2. Recovery is supported by a full rigging range of straps, shackles, snatch blocks and dampers.
The company operates 180,000 square feet of manufacturing, engineering and office space in Clackamas, Oregon, employs close to 400 people, holds more than 100 patents and produces over 600 products under ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and IATF 16949 certified systems.

Unfortunately, the Warn 38826 won't fit your 2005 C30. This hub is designed for GM, Ford, and Dodge trucks from 1976 through 2004 on select models, so your 2005 falls outside the compatibility range. You'll need to look for a different part number that covers the newer model years.
This hub fits a wide range of 1-ton trucks with Dana 50/60 axles, including 1976-1986 Chevrolet C30, 1977-1986 Chevrolet K30, 1987-1988 Chevrolet V30, 1989-1990 Chevrolet V3500, 1990-1993 Dodge D250, 1990-1993 Dodge D350, 1990-1993 Dodge W250, 1990-1993 Dodge W350, 2000-2005 Ford Excursion, 1997 Ford F-250 HD, 1999-2004 Ford F-250 Super Duty, 1978-1997 Ford F-350, and 1999-2004 Ford F-350 Super Duty. It's designed for trucks with 30-spline out shafts specifically.
The installation is pretty straightforward for most DIY mechanics. The kit includes everything you need - a pair of premium locking hubs, o-ring seals, and all necessary hardware. Just keep in mind that if you're replacing factory automatic hubs, you'll also need spindle nut kit PN 32721.
