Yes, for sure if I could get them on eBay for half price of what's up here in Canada, from a trusted source. I got a EGR valve on eBay and it was definitely though labelled and packed FoMoCo, it was a second and not exactly right. I had to orient it 180 degrees from stock to bolt it down. But yeah, I love the auto hub when it works. In the extreme cold, only the first year of 11 years.

And when it doesn't work, you get out and lock the hubs just like the aftermarket hubs. I can't see paying money to have something that works exactly like a failed stock auto-locking setup.

I have used mine for 10 years. They work great at warmer temps, but I have found the that below 10 f and below not so good. They have been lubricated several times, several seal kits, vacuum pump change, lots of trouble shooting to keep em working. I end up locking manual in colder temps anyway because often only one side locks and nothin. I agree, why not replace with the real thing, but price is an issue for sure. They skin me up here on prices pretty bad. If I buy online from anyone down south shipping, duty at the boarder and extreme delay in delivery makes it a pain.
