I've seen them, I'm still trying to figure them out as to why they are a good idea.

Easy to do high steer, multiple options on bolt pattern means that if you're running a 6 lug rear (Waggy, Isuzu, Toyota) you can match the front without spacers, lets you run easily sourced parts instead of custom stuff too.

What's easy about the high steer? You still have to get the trackbar over to the top of the inner C or wind up with bumpsteer for all your hard work and money.

To get the trackbar over there you have to move the spring perches back.

The multiple bolt pattern hubs I saw were running about 350 a pair for the bearing hubs for 5 on 5.5.

I applaud the ingenuity though.
