You can find any screw you need at ace. I think their selection is a lot better than homo depot.

yep, home depot/lowes didnt have the right sized allen screws but ace did. Also found long enough screws to work for my double stack IAB mod at ace.

Just bring the hub and test fit a few screws, I dont remember the size off the top of my head.

Dont really know the terms for the different allen screws , but you dont want the one on the right because it wont fit neatly into the hole of your steering wheel like the left one.



Dont get anything bigger than an .75 inch, I think you need something between .5 and .75" The threading on my nrg hub wasnt that deep, so when I used 1" screws they didnt even thread in all the way.

The only other time I've seen a historical plate was at an autozone by my old house. The guy had some old car that had a manual crank in the front. I waited for him to come out of the store just to see him start that thing, but after 15 minutes I got sick of waiting.

about time..

New to my daily is cross drilled slotted rotors and complete front brake overhaul. No more brake chatter..

After that i got a alignment from my buddy's friend and the beater actually drives straight.

Might do the rear disc swap or just replace the rear shoes in the coming months.
