I have the original set of Warns that look just like those on my '67 W200. Only issue we ever had with them was the bolts coming loose on a regular basis. One eventually broke too deep to easily get out so I replaced the hub when I got the rig. I went to grade 8 Allen head bolts and put them in with blue lock-tite and have had only 1 bolt come loose in nearly 8 years.
Dan says his will be stronger than the ones I have so I see no troubles with them. Mine is an original BB that now displaces 450 cubes for the last 8 years so far so good although I don't beat it up. I don't let my brother behind the wheel though. =) There is a story many years ago that statement stems from. LOL
