Dyantrac Freespin Kit

Does anyone on here have the Dyantrac Freespin Kit installed on their truck. I've seen claims of up to four more mpg's. Before I spend $2000 on this kit I would like to hear about it from someone who has it. Thanks for any help you can give me.

really 4MPG better, i really dont see that, but the wear on the front axle of the truck will be worth that in 1 repair down the road.

keep us posted...

So, its just a rebuildable, manual hub setup...right? If so, then I don't see it improving the mileage that much. I have manual hubs on my truck and the mileage still sux with 325/60R18s.

Does that kit come with servicable wheel bearings? If it did I would be interested in that because the factory ones are not and it don't take to many times of buying the factory ones to pay for that kit.

Here is a link to the kit that I'm speaking of Dynatrac 2005 - 2007 Ford Free-Spin Hub Conversion Kit . The company tells all about it.

Will not change MPG, if you had a full time 4x4 yes it would help..some.
The kit uses regular bearings and 35sp stub shafts, if your not wheeling just keep what you have.
