Maybe I just seen all the broken stuff in the world. I have seen one hub be torn in half with the single side lacing with the crack starting at the oil hole. The other hub just got a bent flange. These were most likely caused by pulling too hard or off centered since I've seen at least 100 other FW's be pulled off with the one side lacing method. I'd say go for it but be careful. enjoy, Brandon"monkeyman"Ives
