TJ Front Hub Assy\'s

Anyone have any experience with the front hub assemblies on TJ's? My '97TJ has about 74k miles and I am about to do new brakes/rotors/drums/shocks/etc. on it. Repair manuals say the Front hubs cannot be serviced - to replace entire assembly. How long should they last? This is mostly "pre-emptive" to prevent disassembly in the near future.
Thanks

My wife's were still good @ 75k before I ditched them for the Warn hub conversion. They're about $125 each last I checked ...so I don't think that you want to do any pre-emptive/proactive replacing there. Not much to the job. The hardest part, besides hammering off the rotor, is that the three bolts that hold the hub assembly tend to corrode a bit.

And when you put them back in, think "Anti-Seize." Lots of it. Makes things easier if you need to remove them later.

Check some of the boards and ebay, there are usually some out there for pretty cheap that you can get that have low miles on them.
