It's truth.
As a u-joint turns, it's easier to break. Warn had to design the hub fuse to work in most circumstances. They made them weaker than a u-joint when it is straight on, but stronger than at full turn.
Had they made it weaker than full-turn, the fuse would break just driving in a straight line.
Regardless, they will be pretty much useless on the Xterra, since CV joints are weaker than u-joints, and the CV joint will fail long before the hub fuse will.
On the bright side, the Xterra barely makes enough power to break a CV unless seriously abused.
