Randy spotted this rare warn hub box. It needs another hub though. Northstar Willys is auctioning this.
“This auction is for one Warn hub cap with the original case.”

This Warn brochure from 1955 highlights the differences between automatic and semi-automatic hubs. I didn’t know there were such things as the automatic hub.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“hi – i normally dont sell jeep parts but i bought some vintage jeep parts for my own project and got these really neat vintage hubs too and i dont think i will ever use them – so here they are.
these i believe were called ” summer-time ” hubs that were installed on the front of many old 4×4 jeeps for when either the jeep was going to be towed or for when the weather was nice and you werent going to use 4wd for a while – these hubs here just have bearings inside of them and were sold in the 1950s at dealerships from what the former jeep employee had told me.
these are really neat and the insides were still clean and greasy so theres no rust or damage to the needle bearings and theres no cracks or anything bad about these. they could still use some cleaning on the outsides and maybe some polishing to make them look real shiny again but they dont look too bad right now.”
