Would anyone want new Front hubs for the FC???

I am not 100% sure, from the pictures, you change the bearings the same way as stock:

weld a tab to the race, and punch it out, then flip and repeat. Afterwards, press in new races and install new bearings.

Also, the price would be $250 each, right? $500 is for a set of TWO HUBS, so this would be the same as buying two factory hubs but better. I guess that someone might want to buy a single hub, but If I was replacing them, I dont see any reason not to upgrade.

Does the pair rule apply to hubs the same as it does to shocks, springs, pads, and tires? (replaced in pairs on both sides)

PS: Sorry to steal your thread Dan...

Welding a tab isn't worth it. Just heat the hell out of the hub and it should just fall out.
