These new hubs are a bit funky by gregster on Wed Jul 17, 2013 12:01 pm
Saw these on the bay....no nasty little torx bolts like the avm's, infact no cover bolts at all, which makes me wonder whats involved in fitting the circlips... :shock:

Looks like I'm in trouble with the Mrs's again...
She asked me what I'd most like to do to her body...
Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer!

I can only assume no circlip ... which means the CV joint will fall out the back of the hub when your on full lock and flexing it.

I think I will stick to Aisin, and AVM.

Edit:

Unless the outer body slides on afterwards. You fit part of the mechanism, put your circlip on. Fit the rest of the working mechanism, then bolt the outer casing on afterwards.
