Jimny locking hubs? was created by Rodden87
After Plenty of messing at the start of play days and before every lane I'm just about at my wits end with the vaccum locking hub system and would like some advice on what people are using as an alternative?

I have done a little research and found two hubs manual locking hubs for sale on jimny bits the AVM and what looks like a similar unbranded type. Does anyone have any experience with either of these?

From previous vit experience I want to avoid the plastic type that came on some vits the ones I had were shockly s^*t.

Thanks Andy

Knowing Russ at Jimnybits I would think they're fine - and much more reliable than Vacuum ones

Just we don't have them as we had the Aisin ones on the jimny when we bought it
