    The Next Upgrade

    So I'm thinking on upgrading to the #87230 17mm Hex Hub Conversion Set w/UV Joint (Savage) This is the one with the special dog bones that have a pin in the hub cup itself. I’m a little skeptical about that one factor. Don’t want to be down for 2 weeks waiting on some special dog bone. So...
