    I have wilwood aluminum disc brake hubs on 37 to 48 ford spindles and they are 5 on 4.5 bolt circle. I would like to have them 5X 4.750 bolt circle.
    Is there a jig I can purchase that bolts between two bolts and allows me to drill for 5X4.750"?

    huh, my Wilwood disc brake hubs are drilled for both bolt patterns. Did you look? Maybe there are different varieties.

    I can’t remember who it is, but there is a guy , here, that actually makes a jig for redrilling hubs. I think there also be a site that rents that tool, since most folks don’t use them that often. Maybe someone here remembers ?
