While I appreciate your reply, the failure mode on the OEM part is much better in my opinion than what happens with the Hyundai part. When the OEM part fails, we get a noise and a little play. When the Hyundai part fails, it fails and makes a ton of play.



Also, I would like to keep my car completely legal for STX, just in case I get a wild hair and want to return to the SCCA Nationals this year in Lincoln.
