    Agreed. This is one small item that if it fails it will change your Patrol's capability entirely. Avm hubs are great but but higher maintenance than OEM auto hubs. I converted my OEM auto's to manual, then went ourt and got AVM's. One needed to come of for a reason and wouldn't budge. It had to be broken to be removed. I ended up putting the OEM's back on.
    My 2c.

    In my experience oem all the way or superiors 4140 items if getting serious, these are a copy if the factory items but made from a far tougher material. I have seen a few avm's break and remove themselves
