I got a pair of these and they've been perfect so far! Cheaper now than when I got them too!

Pretty decent copies of Aisin ones... Just watch out for the import tax (about £20 for me)!

Are the tops of those plastic? if so do they have some sort of metal sleeve? The Aisin hubs have cone shaped washers on the mounting bolts and without them they are prone to coming loose, those don't look like they have the taper.

It should also be added that when buying 6 of those hubs from china the price is £10 per hub.... so I'd say the manufacturing quality will be generally low, and the guy selling them is making a killing

No I don't have a link sorry...
I contacted Ningbo Pabokay Machinery who make them...
and they said $16.29 per unit, with further discount ordering over 100

Cheapest I can find for a pair is £50 delivered, then you would need to add on £10 VAT and £10/£15 VAT collection charge.

Personally I would just stick with the Aisins... we know they are good
Anyone know if you can get rebuild kits for them anywhere?
My parts bloke might have them... could be handy

If your parts bloke can get rebuild kits for them, let me know. I'll paypal you if you can get me a kit at the same time.
