Converting from drum to disk brakes...

The hand drill revision is a hack. I'm guessing there aren't too many employees at the Yamaha plants finish drilling spindles with Black and Deckers.

Well when you use anything black and decker it is a hack.A drill press worked well for me very well.Sorry bro I have had you do a few things for me and got a set of those spindles in the past however these cost me a whopping $15 bucks.Alot cheaper and a good way to save money.And they will not fall out.IMO
 
I just wanna know why my brakes wont adjust on the front end. I have near new shoes and a new cable but only one side will grab. I adjusted the handle and on the wing nut and moved the lever (On the wheel setup) forward a few splines. Should I get a new set of shoes?

Its probably your drum cause I had the same issue and it was the back of the drum u should probably check that out
