Yeah, but I'll have to drive it like this tomorrow. If there's anyone whose house I can stop at on my way home tomorrow evening so I can use a big torque wrench for a few min, please let me know. Any place on the north side will do! Thanks! (This is another reason why I can't wait to put disks on the rear!) |

I modified mine to fit the 5 X 130, welded up the 4 lug holes and re drilled. Well, it worked, but I had to get it lined up just right. My long studs caused some problems hitting the arm of the tool as it turned around. I used some junk lug nuts so I wouldn't mess up my nice polished ones. It might have been fine if I had open-ended lug nuts. Good thing is that I was able to get the screwdriver bit out and free up the adjuster screw. I have good brakes again!  Thanks Ryan!
