Default PB Rear Hubs on Astro

Does anybody have any experience of running the PB rear hubs on dry astro. I see they are using them on carpet and I don't like the faff of changing the ld hub inserts, also fancy trying UJ driveshafts - so thought I might try both at the same time as the pb hubs need the PB driveshafts.

My only concern is the pb hubs are narrower and I prefer the H hub inserts (wide) in the dry to provide more on power steering compared to the M hub (narrow) set. As you run a wider hex for the narrower hubs (in my mind the distance from the wheel face to the outer wishbone pivot is the same)is it just the top link length that is really changing?

Thanks.
