Yes that is true I already nix'd that idea and went back to a more traditional route, how much difference is the in bolt spacing on the spindle? as I have plug welded forgings before and re drilled them and if there is enough meat to do so that is an option. Otherwise I'm going to go to a buddy's place draw something up in cad and mill a one piece thread in unit. Its just weighing time and then having to send it out to be made at a short run cnc shop.
