Having to drill out the spindle and cross arm is bull****.

Not an easy task - far easier for the supplier to make them 7/16 holes and drill if needed.

We may have a couple of sets we can make from extra components.

Rotor pattern is 5 on 5. If you wish otherwise you will need to redrill, spotface and trim pilot down from 3.06 to 2.780.
